This study focuses on the simulation of a vehicle leaving from the vehicle platoon of four vehicles. The velocity control model is defined by means of the improved Gazis model, which is one of the vehicle following models. The experiment of vehicle platoon simulation of four LEGO Mindstorms is performed. The results are compared with numerical simulation in order to confirm the validity of the model.
