Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) have been
magnetizing interest from research and industry. VANET
technology is distinguished from mobile ad hoc networks
(MANET) and wireless sensor networks (WSN) by large-scale
deployed autonomous nodes with abundant exterior assisted
information, high mobility with an organized but constrained
pattern, frequently changed network topology leading to frequent
network fragmentation, and varying drivers behavior factors. In
this paper, we introduce a vehicular mobility model and evaluate
the performance of routing protocols: AODV, DSR and TORA.
A variety of highway scenarios characterized by the mobility,
load, and size of the network. Our results signify the reactive
routing protocols performance, which is suitable for VANET
scenarios in terms of packet delivery ratio, routing load, and endto-
end delay.

This paper provides an overview of a mobility models
with network simulator. The crash of V2V communication
on traffic can be investigated in detail, which is crucial for
evaluating the benefits for traffic safety & throughput. The
simulation environment set up is a big step forward to a
realistic representation of different scenarios, we focus on
the routing performance in vehicular ad hoc networks. We
present an extensive simulation studies to compare the
following routing protocols: AODV, DSR and TORA,
using a variety of highway scenarios, characterized by the
mobility, load, and size of the networks.
