Example 2: moving truck with overtaking possibilities Now, let's consider a different situation, where overtaking of the moving bottleneck is possible. We change the conditions as follows. Consider a three lane road, where at all three lanes a triangular fundamental diagram holds. The capacity is 2000 veh/h/lane, the free flow speed 80 km/h and the jam density 150 veh/km. The demand is 2500 veh/h. A truck enters the road at t=0.5h and x=10 km, and leaves the road at t=1h and x=15 km, hence driving 10 km/h. There are overtaking opportunities, such that downstream of the bottleneck the flow is 1000 veh/h. What is the traffic state at the road?
