Abstract (en)
Method and system for managing traffic flows, formed by vehicles (1). A traffic regulation system (2) is arranged in order to register, prior to a trip, travel data, as point of departure and terminus and the departure time and arrival hour, to be registered in a travel data system (2a) and in order to process those travel data into control signals for optimal management of the traffic flows. The control signals can control for example remote controllable traffic signs, remote controllable traffic lanes, traffic lane and speed signs etc. (3) and/or vehicle navigation systems (9), personal navigation and information systems etc. Registration can whether or not be obligatory, be rewarded, be free or must have to be paid. If registration is obligatory or rewarded or charged, then the travel data to be registered need to comprise also identity data of the vehicle by which the intended trip is going to be made. Furthermore the system needs then to comprise also means (2d) for the monitoring of the identity of the vehicles and for the comparison of the identity of those vehicles with the travel data stored in the travel data system.
