The purpose of this research is to examine an effectiveness evaluation of safety improvement and conflict reduction by vehicle cooperation system based on immune network. Specifically, the evaluation is verified by TTC(Time to Collision) and PICUD(Possibility Index for Collision with Urgent Deceleration) indicating the safety of the vehicle behavior. In addition, macroscopic viewpoint with the traffic flow and mean velocity of vehicles are adapted to evaluate conflict reduction. In their evaluations, micro traffic simulation is used. The simulation includes driver models at merging section.
