Abstract English A multi-lane traffic flow model based on stochastic noise driven dynamics is introduced and analyzed. The model employs conservative anisotropic Arrhenius spin-exchange (surfacediffusion) dynamics. We generate an asymmetric simple exclusion process to model vehicleinteractions. Vehicles react and advance based on the energy profile of their surrounding trafficthrough a novel look-ahead asymmetric interaction potential. The resulting vehicular trafficmodel is numerically implemented via kinetic Monte Carlo simulations and scrutinized under basic traffic flow situations.
