A general stochastic traffic cellular automaton (CA) model, which includesslow-to-start effect and driver's perspective, is proposed in this paper. It isshown that this model includes well known traffic CA models such asNagel-Schreckenberg model, Quick-Start model, and Slow-to-Start model asspecific cases. Fundamental diagrams of this new model clearly show metastablestates around the critical density even when stochastic effect is present. Wealso obtain analytic expressions of the phase transition curve in phasediagrams by using approximate flow-density relations at boundaries. These phasetransition curves are in excellent agreement with numerical results.
