Road capacity infrastructure and temporary interruptions in trips constitute the main reasons behind the traffic jam phenomenon. City urbanization and growth further intensify these two reasons through the increase of work area and the demand for mobility. In such a scenario, several issues can emerge, such as higher mobility costs, more frequent traffic jams, more significant environmental damage, reduced quality of life, and more pollution. Therefore, this work presents a Proactive and Reactive Approach for Urban Traffic Management in Vehicular Networks, RIDER, to minimize traffic congestion. RIDER is a fully-distributed protocol that can assume proactive and reactive behaviors for sharing traffic condition information. Vehicles with traffic condition information can organize them-selves to improve traffic flow and reduce traffic congestion. In the proposed solution, vehicles monitor the road traffic condition and proactively share this information when needed, considering adaptive multi-hop communication. If vehicles do not have nearby road traffic information, they executed a reactive traffic information discovery. RIDER was evaluated and compared to previous works, regarding the number of transmitted messages, packet collisions, and traffic congestion metrics.
