Abstract
A vehicle broadcasts a lane change intent message indicating parameters of a maneuver to be performed by the vehicle operating as a main traffic participant vehicle, the maneuver requiring use of a road resource. Response messages are received from recipient vehicles indicating approval or disapproval of performance of the maneuver. Responsive to one of the recipient vehicles returning a response message indicating conflict with use of the road resource required for performance of the maneuver, a conflict resolution procedure is performed between the main traffic participant vehicle and the conflicted recipient vehicle, the conflict resolution procedure using a pre-agreed identical conflict resolution algorithm executed on each of the main traffic participant vehicle and the conflicted recipient vehicle to each make a same distributed decision whether to proceed with the maneuver.
