Sweden: VTI completes simulation of cooperative convoys
Infrastrukturnyheter, 17 Oct 2017, online:-
A simulation study conducted by the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (Statens väg- och transportforskningsinstitut, VTI) shows that vehicles in cooperative convoys can deal with sudden interference from outside vehicles. Halmstad University researcher Maytheewat Aramrattana states that simulations have shown that the convoys are capable of handling most sudden disturbances from other drivers, even though the existing technology was not designed for this specific purpose. However, other incidents and accidents in the simulation revealed that there still exists room for improvement.
