Vehicle is modeled as a point, which is moving along a closed trajectory. A small amount of time is defined as the time step, the smallest time difference, so that any time measurement is simply multiple of this value. Lowest positive velocity (but greater than zero) is where in the time step a vehicle advances its position for only a spatial step. Higher velocities and also the negative ones can be constructed from this value. Only a single lane is investigated in this work, where a vehicle must wait until there is an empy space in front of it before it can move forward. As pertubation several traffice lights are also installed in the trajectory. Number of vehicles stop at a stoplight or N stop is observed.
