Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a slipstream driving arrangement system and method. Exemplary embodiments described in the present disclosure generally relate to systems and methods of forming a fleet of vehicles and utilize slipstream formations that may provide benefits such as, for example, reducing fuel consumption of following vehicles. In an exemplary method, a first vehicle transmits a request to form a fleet with a second vehicle. The request may be initiated by a slipstream driving arrangement, which may be part of the first vehicle or disposed in a personal communication device of a driver of the first vehicle. Upon receipt of acceptance of the request from the second vehicle, the first vehicle may perform a meeting operation to merge with the second vehicle and perform a slipstream formation with the second vehicle. Any vehicle may be provided with a financial incentive to operate as a fleet of guided vehicles. 本公开提供"滑流驾驶布置系统和方法"。本公开中描述的示例性实施例通常涉及形成车辆车队的系统和方法,并且利用可以提供益处的滑流队形,所述益处诸如例如减少跟随车辆的燃料消耗。在示例性方法中,第一车辆
