Abstract
The problem of analysis of traffic jams performed by the Cellular Automata oriented techniques is widely studied since the beginning of 90th and the seminal paper of Nagel and Schreckenberg. The typical approach is based on the one to one relation between the sizes of cell and the particular vehicle. We propose to take into account the smaller size of cells what makes possible to consider more densely distributed values of typical features of vehicles like velocity or acceleration. On the other hand, the decrease of cell size can lead to the model which is very similar to the continuous one. We think that our approach does not exceed the limits sensible for CA.
