Most of existing traffic simulation efforts focus on urban regions with a coarse 2-D representation, relatively few works have been conducted to simulate realistic 3-D traffic flows on a large, complex road web in rural scenes. In this paper we propose a novel agent-based approach called Accident-Avoidance Full Velocity Difference Model (abbreviated as AA-FVDM) to simulate realistic street-level rural traffics, on top of the existing FVDM model. The main.distinction between FVDM and AA-FVDM is:
