To control vehicular congestion at intersections, a method includes detecting a group of two or more vehicles stopped at an intersection regulated by a traffic light, where for each of the vehicles in the group, movement through the intersection in response to a change in a state of the traffic light is affected by movement of at least one other vehicle in the group. The method further includes determining a time when the state of the traffic light changes to allow the group of vehicles to start moving through the intersection, determining acceleration parameters for a certain vehicle in the group in view of potential and/or actual movement of the other vehicles in the group through the intersection, and providing guidance to a device operated by a driver of the certain vehicle regarding the determined acceleration parameters, in accordance with the determined time.
