Evolution of the energy consumption at the midpoint of the road over time for different values of parameters (a) ${\tau }_{0}$ (${\zeta }_{0}=0.3,$ $\lambda =0.6,$ ${\rho }_{0}=0.06\,{\rm{veh}}/{\rm{m}}$); (b) ${\zeta }_{0}$ (${\tau }_{0}=0.1,$ $\lambda =0.7,$ ${\rho }_{0}=0.06\,{\rm{veh}}/{\rm{m}}$).
