Considerable improvements in highway safety and capacity can be achieved by vehicle automation. Described is an approach, which is based on the following. the individual transportation unit should be retained; an automatic system should be gradually introduced; and only limited-access highways will be automated. the resulting design is devided into three parts - longitudinal control, lateral control, and intersection and lane-changing control. Typical road-test data are given and an automatic steering system is discussed.
