TRANSPORT SERVICE METHOD AND VEHICLE PLATOONING METHOD, VEHICLE GROUP NAVIGATION SYSTEM, SELF-DRIVING VEHICLE CAPABLE OF PLATOONING, AND GROUPED VEHICLE GUIDANCE DEVICE

摘要

This embodiment provides a transport service method, vehicle platooning method, vehicle group navigation system, self-driving vehicle capable of platooning, and grouped vehicle guidance device, with which it is possible to appropriately control the distance between grouped vehicles according to changes in road conditions. In this embodiment, vehicles, the individual parameters (for example, the gross weight when loaded with cargo, passengers, animals or the like, the overtaking acceleration, deceleration/braking performance, or tire frictional force) of which fall within a predetermined range, are grouped together to form a vehicle group. In specific terms, within grouped vehicles that constitute a predetermined vehicle group, the ratio of the maximum parameter value to the minimum parameter value is set so as not to exceed 1000.
