Generalized semi-Poisson model is described, its implication in terms of headway distributions is outlined, and its properties are discussed in relation to other models of traffic flow; new headway distribution and certain other theoretical headway distributions are compared with over 10,000 headways covering wide range of traffic flows; it is concluded that model or its particularizations predict headways fairly well and could be used in study of nature of road traffic.
