The connected autonomous vehicles are in development and will enter into operation
gradually so their effect on traffic must be studied under diverse conditions of inclusion. Platforms
are one of the ways that autonomous vehicles will connect efficiently. By grouping and generating
platoons the spacing between vehicles is decreased even more than what is expected in the
autonomous cars, the leading vehicle will have the command of the decisions so that it will be safer,
will improve the maneuverability and reaction times.
Additionally, the platoons have economic and environmental advantages due to the aerodynamic
effect that occurs when reducing speciation, particularly in the freight transport.
The implementation of the platoons is linked to the timely and real-time exchange of travel data by
the operators and how operators will use the information to form them.
