Eclipse SUMO is an open source, highly portable, microscopic and continuous traffic simulation package designed to handle large networks. It allows for intermodal simulation including pedestrians and comes with a large set of tools for scenario creation.
currently, teleports are only considered for the lead vehicle on any lane.
If the leading vehicle has a stop, the vehicles behind it are blocked indefinitely.
If the leading vehicle is removed (i.e. because it's route ends) and the first blocked vehicle exceeds gTimeToTeleport it teleports instantly.
The fact that a vehicle teleports once it is free to drive is surprising and should be fixed. Suggestion
a) If the leader vehicle is stopped check whether any upstream vehicle should be teleported. Or
b) If a stopped vehicle is removed, reset the waiting time for its follower
