Abstract:
A method, system, and computer readable program product are disclosed for traffic intersection distance signaling. In an embodiment, the method comprises determining a distance between a first vehicle and a traffic intersection, said first vehicle being on a first side of the intersection; using this determined distance to determine if a pre-defined distance is available between the first vehicle and the intersection; and when this pre-defined distance is available between the first vehicle and the intersection, signaling to a second vehicle, on a second side of the intersection, that space is available for the second vehicle on the first side of the intersection. In embodiments of the invention, the method further comprises measuring a specified length of the second vehicle, and the pre-defined distance is based on this measured specified length. In an embodiment, the predefined distance is equal to or greater than this measured specified length.

Claim (Index 8):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the using said determined distance and the measured length of the second vehicle to determine if space is available for the second vehicle, behind the first vehicle, for the second vehicle to enter and exit the intersection behind the first vehicle includes determining that said space is available for the second vehicle when the determined distance between the first vehicle and the near edge of the traffic intersection is equal to or greater than the measured length of the second vehicle.
