A road system includes a road surface along which vehicles travel, with the vehicles traveling along the road surface including electric vehicles. A plurality of electrical charging elements is disposed along the road surface. Batteries of electric vehicles traveling along the road surface are electrically charged as the electric vehicles travel along the electrical charging elements disposed along the road surface. A plurality of communication devices along the road surface. The communication devices are operable to wirelessly communicate with vehicles traveling along the road surface. At least some of the communication devices along the road wirelessly communicate lane information to a vehicle traveling along a lane of the road surface. Responsive to the wirelessly communicated lane information, the vehicle maintains its path of travel in the lane traveled along by the vehicle as the vehicle travels along the road surface.
