This research is dedicated to the study of dynamics of vehicles moving through the additional entry lanes of a roundabout. Using the data created on the base of that model the constant coefficients of the sixth-degree polynomial function, previously proposed by us, have been found. In result of this there were obtained two analytic equations of vehicles’ movement, where one of them presented with the positive si gn of the leading coefficient and the other one negative. These two equations allowed to make comprehensive investigation of the delays and the kinematics of the vehicles moving by such kinds of lanes. Based on the appropriate calculations it is determined vehicles’ consequent delays, velocities, accelerations and decelerations. Analyzing the delays, the dynamics of accelerations and decelerations, it is done an assumption that if the leading coefficient of algorithm of movement of vehicles is negative than it will lead to larger deceleration and consequently higher environmental pollutions and higher noises.
