This study aims to investigate the impacts of merge strategies of a ramp CAV on mainline human drivers. Previous studies evaluated CAV merge strategies mostly based on either the simulation or the restricted field testing, which lacks consideration of realistic driving behaviors in the merging scenario. To deal with this research gap, this study developed a multi-driver simulator system and considered realistic driving behaviors in the validation of merge strategies. Four CAV merge strategies were evaluated regarding their impacts on driving safety and comfort of the mainline human drivers. Findings suggest that the CAV merge strategy should not only ensure the ramp vehicle’s merging task but also consider mainline vehicles’ driving performance.
