The problem of modeling road traffic, when the drivers do not obey lane discipline, in considered. Identical vehicles are assumed to influence each other based on proximity and visual feedback. This percolation of influence across suitably defined layers of vehicles, in modeled using weighted directed graphs. Drivers accelerate, decelerate or maneuver sideways with the objective of maintaining safe inter-vehicle distances between the cars. This target inter-vehicle distance varies with the absolute velocity of the cars. When the influence structure is time invariant, e.g. in dense traffic, the collection converges to a layered formation with inter-vehicle distances based on vehicle velocities. In general, for a changing influence topology the inter-car distance can oscillate, while remaining uniformly bounded.
