| 摘要： | First, having a closely packed convoy of heavy vehicles poses a risk to merging vehicles at motorway junctions. That was judged to be such an issue that during the trial the three-vehicle platoon spent nearly as much time broken up (46.5%) as combined. Rejoining the platoon required trailing vehicles to accelerate, which consumed fuel, and that fuel consumption ate up almost all of the fuel saving of the practice over single-vehicle adaptive cruise control systems. (A thought experiment suggests that in best-case conditions, fuel savings might increase from 2.6% to as much as about 4%, compared to 7% fuel savings found on test track configurations in other studies.) |
