Part of the book series: Advances in Industrial Control ((AIC))

Abstract

In the last decade, the conception of the autonomous control of the road vehicles has been in a focus of automotive research activities. Autonomous vehicles may have an impact on the traffic flow, which results from the smooth driving and adhering to the traffic regulations.
