The invention relates to the guidance of autonomous vehicles and in particular, relates to guiding an autonomous vehicle along a roadway with active devices with a system which works during normal and inclement weather as well as under any luminous conditions. These active devices are embedded in the passive and/or active road details such as traffic signs, traffic lights, warning lights etc. These active devices provide data relating to road conditions, speed, road layout etc. as well as other information such as availability of parking spaces. Accordingly, through networks of sensors and devices the autonomous vehicle can obtain road details in real-time in severe weather conditions such as heavy snowstorm, ice, fog or other inclement weather.
