Traffic flow simulation is exploited for estimating the probability that a message - A hazard warning in this case - is correctly transmitted to an approaching car in time, that is, before overstepping a safety threshold. The results derived by simulation provide valuable insights in the functional relation between the numerous authoritative parameters and the reliability of timely message reception.
