C-Roads is a European initiative aimed at enhancing road safety and efficiency through connected and automated driving. It focuses on developing communication systems that allow vehicles to share information with each other and with infrastructure, such as traffic lights and road signs. This technology aims to reduce accidents and improve traffic flow. The project involves collaboration among various stakeholders, including governments, automotive manufacturers, and research institutions. By implementing C-Roads, Europe seeks to create a standardized framework for connected vehicles, ultimately contributing to smarter and safer transportation systems across the continent.
