Zusammenfassung:	This invention relates to systems and methods that provide compensation for participants in a cooperative driving or autonomous driving platoon based on their role within said platoon. Certain roles in these types of platoons provide a natural benefit. Other roles in the same platoon provide either less of a benefit, zero benefit or a burden. It is unlikely that a participating vehicle would willingly choose a role with a lesser benefit or burden; thereby significantly reducing the probability that a platoon could form. The system and methods within this invention overcome that economic disincentive; thereby removing an obstacle to cooperative driving or autonomous platoons.
