A method of utilizing basic safety messages (BSMs) to provide insight of traffic situations to a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) enabled vehicle includes one or more of the following: transmitting BSMs from on-road vehicles; forwarding V2X messages including BSMs to a multi-access edge computing (MEC) server; extracting data samples from the V2X messages including BSMs; generating statistical results from the extracted data samples; and visualizing the statistical results for a driver of the vehicle.
