In order to explore the driving behavior characteristics of vehicles which across the line of multi-lane freeway diverging areas, the paper selected Hu-Ning multi-lane freeway interchange (groups) as a field observation engineering, and extracted diverging and merging locations, speed and other traffic behavior from the drivers and the vehicles. The test results showed that: a multi-lane freeway diverging area motorcycle type difference and diverging location with low correlation under free-flow condition, and the vast majority of drivers choose merging locations advance under medium and low flow conditions, the locations merging behaviors of heavy vehicles and cars are broadly similar, but when the traffic conditions change, the merging locations between the two appears discrepancy and so on.
