2. Cooperative ITS: motivation and use cases

Despite efforts to reduce growth, the volume of road transport is constantly increasing. Among other things, this is leading to a growing number of accidents and increasingly frequent traffic jams, which play a negative role in the economic and ecological cycle. Although traditional road traffic management measures are helping to reduce the nuisance caused by this growth, new systems coupling new digital technologies with the various modes of road transport hold out the prospect of a major breakthrough in solving this problem . In particular, among the ITS in the development phase are cooperative ITS, in which vehicles directly exchange information on their journey (position,...
