    BACKGROUND In today's vehicles, the air resistance at lard is a factor that affects industry consumption, especially in e.g. trucks or other relatively large vehicles that have a star front area.
    The air resistance of a vehicle behind depends largely on. what distance is available to the vehicle in front. In principle, it can be stated that the smaller the distance available to a vehicle in front, the less air resistance and claimed fuel consumption the rear vehicle has. In cases where two or more vehicles are in a so-called vehicle roof, ie those vehicles behind relatively close to the front vehicles, the fuel consumption of these vehicles can be reduced by, for example, 5-15%. Driving vehicles in vehicle roofs can thus reduce operating costs quite significantly.
    A disadvantage of driving vehicles after a vehicle in front is that visibility can be obscured. In the event that a vehicle is driving relatively close to a truck in front with a towed trailer, visibility can be severely limited. This can cause discomfort to a driver in the vehicle behind. Furthermore, a driver in the vehicle behind may gain a limited understanding of why automatic maneuvers of the vehicle are performed. For example, it could be automatic braking or automatic gear selection of a transmission of the vehicle behind. The limited visibility can result in an increased risk of accidents because the driver's perception is thereby reduced.
    US 2003182183 describes various aspects of vehicle struts, for example how the vehicles can establish communication with each other.
    WO2004077378 describes a method for communicating data between vehicles.

The process includes the steps of: - Transferring vehicle information in the form of visual field images to a vehicle behind in real time from a vehicle in front of the vehicle; and - providing said overloaded vehicle information in said rear vehicle, so that at least one visible access in said front vehicle is continuously made available in said rear vehicle.
    This provides an improved driving experience for a driver of a vehicle behind. The procedure also means that a driver has an increased understanding of the traffic situation as well as an increased understanding of why automated systems in the vehicle operate on a certain salt.
    According to one example, vehicle information can be communicated up to lkm, which is why drivers in the vehicle behind can connect to wireless communication in good time before the tram to a vehicle in front of the valley view is limited in the future. Furthermore, a number of vehicles behind no one in a vehicle roof and spirit can be able to obtain vehicle information from a vehicle which is first in said vehicle roof. In this case, a first vehicle in the vehicle roof can communicate directly with a number of vehicles behind, thereby avoiding unnecessary demands when transmitting vehicle information.
    The procedure is associated with short delays as far as Overford information is concerned. The procedure is also simple and inexpensive to install in vehicles. According to a performer, information is also transferred about a rowing position of the vehicle in front to one or more vehicles behind. This can take place at the same time as the said vehicle information is transferred from a vehicle in front to a vehicle behind. Named position information can be 4 Transmitted continuously or intermittently. Said position information can be determined by means of a GPS unit.
    According to a design, Overfors also provides information on how vehicles present Want to regulate its speed to one or more vehicles behind. This can take place at the same time as the said van information is transferred from a vehicle in front to a vehicle behind. Said speed information can be transmitted continuously or intermittently. In this case, a control system of the vehicle behind can obtain information on how a vehicle in front will behave in the future, with regard to e.g. deceleration or acceleration.
    An advantage of the present invention is that the said vehicle information may include information on existing road signs, moving animals, other fixed or moving objects, roadway, the area in front of the vehicle in front, areas outside the roadway, roadworks, pedestrians, cyclists or any lane changes in front of vehicles. In this case, a driver in a vehicle behind can get an Okad understanding of an erratic or impending traffic situation.
    The method may further comprise the step of: - generating said field of view images by means of a camera configuration of said present vehicle. This results in a cheap and reliable salt to produce the said visual field images.
    The procedure may further comprise the step of: - Transmitting said route information via a father to at least two vehicles common wireless communication network.
