A car-following model is presented,in which the effects of non-motor vehicles on adjacent lanes are taken into account.A control signal including the velocity differences between the following vehicle and the target vehicle is introduced according to the feedback control theory.The stability condition for the new model is derived.Numerical simulation is used to demonstrate the advantage of the new model including the control signal;the results are consistent with the analytical ones.
