‘Connected’ self-driving cars can speed up travel time
Self-driving cars that are “connected” can cut down on travel time, but when they don’t communicate, AVs can actually slow things down.
Self-driving cars are bad at the social part of traffic
Self-driving cars fall short when it comes to understanding the social codes in traffic that tell human drivers to yield or continue driving.
Model may get first responders to car accidents faster
Researchers have created a new model to get first responders like police and EMTs to the scene of traffic accidents faster.

Do traffic signals need a fourth light for self-driving cars?
An extra light on traffic signals could let self-driving cars control traffic flow and give a heads up to human drivers.

Technique improves autonomous car navigation in tricky traffic
A technique that allows autonomous cars to make relevant calculations more quickly showed it improves both traffic and safety in simulated situations.
New method makes traffic prediction faster
A new model shows that traffic forecasting doesn’t have to be perfect to be efficient. A “good enough” solution works just fine.
