A vehicle collaboration system of a first autonomous vehicle includes a transceiver and a collaboration controller. The transceiver is configured to broadcast a first collaboration message including first vehicle data associated with the first autonomous vehicle in connection with a collaboration application to a collaboration domain group via a hybrid distributed-connected network (HYDIN). The collaboration domain group includes at least the first autonomous vehicle and a second autonomous vehicle. The transceiver is configured to receive a second collaboration message including second vehicle data associated with the second autonomous vehicle in connection with the collaboration application via the HYDIN. The second collaboration message is broadcast from the second autonomous vehicle to the collaboration domain group via the HYDIN. The collaboration controller is configured to implement a collaboration action associated with the collaboration application based at least in part on the first and second vehicle data. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
