... C-1   A P P E N D I X C Implementing Dynamic Lane-Use Control in a Connected Vehicle Environment OBJECTIVE The objective of Task 4 was to identify alternative methods of presenting information about laneuse and control to drivers beyond roadside signs and signals. Drivers are increasingly using invehicle navigation devices that provide them with turn-by-turn directions and real-time traffic information, and there is a possibility that lane-use and control information could be integrated into these navigation devices in the future.
