Travel Path Guidance Method for Motor Vehicle

Along with the fast rise in number of motor vehicles, traffic congestions are more and more serious. Traffic congestions cause travel time wasting, traffic accident, environmental pollution, vehicles damage and so on. In order to alleviate traffic congestions deteriorating, a travel path guidance method for motor vehicle based on intelligent materials was designed using traffic simulation technologies, considering two common traffic information release systems, whose names are variable message sign and in vehicle navigation system, which will help doing better to make full use of basic traffic information. Then, the method was verified using VISSIM simulation software. The results show that the traffic congestions of experimental network are relieved obviously by the travel path guidance method in this paper.
