	Conclusion The chapter covers three aspects: modeling vehicle arrival using Poisson distribution, generation of random variates following certain distribution, and evaluation of distributions. Specific evaluation include comparing the mean and standard deviation at macro level and using chi-square test which is essentially a micro-level comparison.
