Sustainability has become a major issue in the field of transportation and finding innovative, environmentally-friendly solutions to traditional transportation problems is the newest challenge. This paper explored the possibility of integrating new generation vehicle technologies such as Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control and Intelligent Traffic Signals into the driving experience. A simulation study was conducted and the potential impacts that this change would have on vehicular mobility and the environmental impacts of driving are analyzed. The expected benefits of implementing the system described here are delay reductions by up to 91% and up to 75% reduction in fuel use, among other measures.
