  <abstract>Headway distribution is a function of traffic flow. Traffic flow is  a phenomenon of the driver's behaviour which is strongly influenced by  distance judgement, especially in platoon vehicles. Distance judgement  is a psychological response affected by driving speed. A series of  response-stimulus field experiments at three speed levels were carried  out to ascertain the relationship between a driver ' s distance judgement  (response) and car-following distance (stimullls). I n addition, three  sets of traffic data were collected at three sites on the highway and  classified into speed classes from 40 kph to 90 kph by 10 kph  increments. The data within the isolated and non-isolated regime under  each speed class were fitted by lognormal function. The results were  compared to the driver's response -stimulus relation . The response is  proportional to the logarithm of the stimulus and the frequency of  responses on a normal distribution were drawn. </abstract>
