More Information
Summary:Systems and method are provided for controlling a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: Systems and method are provided for controlling a first vehicle. In one embodiment, a method of determining road surface information for a first vehicle at a vehicle location includes: obtaining a first value of a friction coefficient for a road surface; obtaining environmental data at the vehicle location; calculating a second value of the friction coefficient based on the first value and based on the environmental data at the vehicle location; and controlling the first vehicle based on the second value.
