Spillback is the full or partial blockage of an intersection by one or more cars that don’t make it through before the traffic lights turn red.
“排队溢出”指的是交叉路口被一辆或多辆车完全或部分堵住,导致交通灯变红前路口一直无法通行的状况。
Spillback occurs when a street block is so jammed with slow-moving or stopped vehicles that it has no room for any entering traffic, which frequently “spills back”.
当街区挤满缓慢前行甚至停止不动的车辆,也就没有空间留给其他车辆驶入,这时就经常会发生“排队溢出”。
我们平时也常用queue spillback来表示下游交叉口车辆排队蔓延至上游交叉口的交通现象。
