Vehicle Platooning

Vehicle platooning is a method of grouping vehicles that travel closely together on roads, typically with the use of advanced technology. In a platoon, one vehicle, often a lead truck, communicates with others behind it, sharing information about speed, braking, and steering. This coordinated movement reduces air resistance, improves fuel efficiency, and enhances safety by minimizing the risk of collisions. Platooning is especially beneficial for freight transport, as it can streamline traffic flow and reduce congestion on highways, paving the way for more efficient transportation systems.
