Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) integrate information and communication technologies with transportation infrastructure, vehicles, and users to improve road safety and collect the necessary data for further enhancements. These systems not only provide operators with essential information about road conditions but also manage traffic flow for effective road monitoring. This system improves driver safety and reduces vehicle wear, travel times, and fuel and energy consumption.
