The goal of traffic control is to influence the traffic in the way it becomes more effective and safe. At present traffic control is working with the traffic flow considering it a quantity that is possible to regulate and control. The fact that each vehicle represents an independent intelligence is usually not taken into account. In fact each vehicle’s driver decides in dependence on many different factors – from his knowledge and information he possesses to his actual state of mind. When all individual reactions of drivers are combined, self-organizing processes may arise and these self-organizingtendencies may sometimes contribute to the improvement of traffic situation but sometimes they may counterwork and cause more traffic problems.
