Abstract

See full text

A system for monitoring a traffic condition can include a processor and a memory. The memory can store a preliminary operations module, a calculations module, and a communications module. The preliminary operations module can include instructions that cause the processor to obtain information about the traffic condition of stopped or slow moving vehicles. The calculations module can include instructions that cause the processor to: (1) define a monitoring zone that encloses the traffic condition and (2) determine, based on data about velocities of vehicles in the monitoring zone, that an error of a prediction of a position of a vehicle, associated with the traffic condition, is less than a threshold. The communications module can include instructions that cause the processor to: (1) receive the data and (2) cause, in response to a determination that the error is less than the threshold, the information to be communicated to vehicles.
