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
