Abstract
In an approach to improve the management of operating vehicles through smart contracts, embodiments generate a priority score based on received sensor feeds from a vehicle, co-located vehicles, and a smart contract rule. Further, embodiments assign the priority score to the vehicle and the co-located vehicles and the co-located vehicles and identify that the assigned priority score of the vehicle is higher than the co-located vehicles. Additionally, embodiments manage an operation of the co-located vehicles through a computing device within the co-located vehicles based on the smart contract rule and the priority score and create a priority lane for the vehicle by repositioning the co-located vehicles.
