Abstract
In an approach to collaborative accident prevention, that a first vehicle is approaching an intersection is detected. A first vehicle information vector is broadcast from the first vehicle, where the first vehicle information vector contains at least a first vehicle speed, a first vehicle position, and a first vehicle direction. Responsive to receiving a second vehicle information vector from a second vehicle, an optimal order to cross the intersection is calculated based on the first vehicle information vector and the second vehicle information vector. A first adjusted vehicle speed is signaled to the first vehicle and a second adjusted vehicle speed is signaled to the second vehicle based on the optimal order to cross the intersection.
