How can I make the driver ignore a traffic light?

Question

In some situation you might want the IPGDriver to "run a red light".
How can this be achieved?

Solution

In order to make the IPGDriver temporarily ignore traffic lights and "Driver stop" markers, the UAQ Driver.ReCon.StopDist needs to be set to -1. This can for example be achieved via DVA or by using Realtime Expressions in the Maneuver Commands.

Alternatively it is also possible to permanently make a traffic light not relevant for the driver and also autonomous traffic objects:

  • In CarMaker 8 and earlier, this can be done by deactivating the checkbox "Relevant for driver" in the settings of a Traffic light in the Scenario Editor.
  • From CarMaker 9, the concept of traffic lights has changed. Now the same can be achieved by not assigning a "Driver stop" marker to the Traffic light controller
