    Abstract: A warning system is provided for alerting a Vulnerable Road User (VRU) of a predicted collision. The system includes one or more input devices for transmitting a first input signal associated with a first vehicle positioned in a first lane, a second input signal associated with a second vehicle positioned in a second lane, and a third input signal associated with the VRU located on a crosswalk that extends across the first and second lanes. The system further includes a computer having a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is programmed to determine the predicted collision between the second vehicle and the VRU at a predicted collision site. The processor is further programmed to generate an actuation signal. One or more roadway notification devices notify the VRU that the second vehicle is positioned in the second lane and headed toward the predicted collision site in the crosswalk.

    Abstract: A method for driver-defined vehicle to vehicle communications includes receiving, by a controller of a host vehicle, remote-vehicle data from a plurality of remote vehicles. The method also includes identifying, by the controller of the host vehicle, at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle of the plurality of remote vehicles using the remote-vehicle data. The V2X-capable remote vehicle is capable of receiving and transmitting V2X communications. The method also includes receiving, by a user interface of the host vehicle, an input from a vehicle occupant of the host vehicle in response to identifying at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle. The input is indicative that the vehicle occupant wants to communicate a prerecorded voice message to V2X-capable remote vehicle. The method also includes transmitting the prerecorded voice message to the at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle in response to receiving the input from the vehicle occupant.

    Abstract: A method of controlling a reservation at a charging station for a vehicle includes a controller in communication with a remote advisory unit. The method includes positioning a ground lock at the charging slot, the ground lock being controllable through a station command unit. The method includes generating an identification number through the remote advisory unit and transmitting the identification number to the controller and the station command unit. The identification number is randomly generated. The ground lock is moved to a blocking position when an estimated time of arrival of the vehicle is less than a first threshold. The method includes broadcasting a message to the station command unit with the identification number, via the controller, when the estimated time of arrival is less than a second threshold. The ground lock is moved to a non-blocking position when an authentication process is completed.
