Various embodiments include methods that may be implementing in a computing system within vehicles for supporting communicating proxy basic safety communications while operating within a platoon of vehicles to control congestion on frequencies used for basic safety communications. In various embodiments, while a vehicle is operating as a designated platoon vehicle, the computing system may generate a proxy basic safety communication including position and dimension information of the platoon as a whole, and broadcast the proxy basic safety communication on behalf of vehicles in the platoon. The proxy basic safety communication may include positions of certain vehicles within and dimensions of the platoon. While in a platoon but not operating as the designated platoon vehicle, the computing system may not broadcast basic safety communications or broadcast such communications at low power.
