In this study, the problem of car‐following stability is considered. This study presents a clustered car‐following strategy based on inter‐vehicle communications (IVCs), which contributes to derive a more accurate feedback control for improving the stability. In order to maintain car‐following stability, two conditions are considered, which are based on the control theory and a modified optimal velocity car‐following model. In simulations, the results demonstrate that the strategy is effective on the stability of car‐following, and the effect becomes more obvious as the market penetration rates of IVC‐equipped vehicles increase. Even in low market penetration rate (5%), the proposed strategy has significant influence on the stability and the recovering time.
