description This paper studies the travel behavior of travelers who drive from the living area through the highway to the work area during the morning rush hours. The bottleneck model based on personal perception travel behavior has been investigated. Based on their willingness to arrive early, travelers can be divided into two categories: active travelers and negative travelers. Three possible situations have been considered based on travelers’ personal perception. Travelers’ travel choice behaviors are analyzed in detail and equilibrium is achieved with these three situations. The numerical examples show that the departure time choice of the travelers is related not only to the proportion of each type of travelers, but also to personal perceived size.
