The method for organizing a group of several separate vehicles in a platoon includes an identification step (a) in order to identify the candidate vehicles that are to form the platoonp The method also includes an acquisition step (b) in order to acquire, for each candidate vehicle, at least one parameter associated with a tire of the candidate vehicle, such as the wet grip index of the tire tyre, referred to as the “tire parameter”. Subsequently, based on the tire parameter, a processing step (c) for determining the rank attributed to the particular candidate vehicle in the platoon and/or the inter-vehicle distance which, at a given speed, must separate the candidate vehicle in question from the vehicle immediately in front in the platoon.
