Abstract:
Methods and vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems for determining a gap in traffic between two transportation vehicles for a lane change of a transportation vehicle. The method includes identifying the gap in traffic based on a first detection operation and based on a second detection operation. The first detection operation is based on at least one vehicle-to-vehicle status message of at least one other transportation vehicle. The second detection operation is based on an on-board sensor system of the transportation vehicle.
