Study of several aspects of theory of car queues for situation in which there is traffic on main highway and queue of cars on side road waiting to merge; expressions for generating function of steady-state and waiting-time distribution are derived; critical input to side road is determined such that for all larger inputs queue is transient; effect of move up time on queue is considered in particular.
