Warning method for traffic jams and for transferring messages between vehicles involves receiving, transmitting, processing warning signals if operating parameter indicates traffic problem

摘要

The method involves using devices in the vehicle to receive, transmit and process jam warning signals when an operating parameter measured in a vehicle enables a conclusion to be drawn regarding a traffic disturbance. Jam warnings are transmitted for a defined period and/or for a defined distance travelled by the vehicle after receiving jam warnings. Warning signals for the driver are derived from the jam warnings. Independent claims are also included for an arrangement for warning drivers of traffic jams and for a device for transferring messages between vehicles.
