Mountain highways are traffic accident-prone locations. Such factors as vehicle speed and trajectory hold a considerable proportion in the accidents. Highway line features is the basis to determine vehicle speed. In this paper, the running speed of vehicles on mountain highways is taken as the main object of study and the observation and survey data on vehicles deceleration behaviors before they enter a curve on the curved sections of mountain highways are taken as the reference object to establish the drivers driving speed control model on the horizontal curve sections of mountain highways, and an example is used to conduct comparative validation on the driving deceleration model. Calculation results show that the deceleration control model established in this paper is feasible and effective, can better simulate vehicles deceleration behaviors when they pass through speed limit signs or the sections with road surface deceleration signs and provides a new theoretical method and guiding basis for the line features design, traffic safety analysis and evaluation and traffic safety improvements of mountain highways.
