Abstract: A method for maintaining vehicle speeds and distances between vehicles travelling in a convoy along a convoy route. The method includes determining locations and speeds of the vehicles; transmitting the locations and speeds of the vehicles by radio transmission to any of the other vehicles of the convoy within radio communication range; providing an automated speed alert to a driver of an individual vehicle of the vehicles if the speed of the individual vehicle violates a speed limit for a segment of the convoy route; and providing an automated distance alert to the driver of the individual vehicle if the individual vehicle violates a distance limit for a segment of the convoy route with respect to leading and/or trailing vehicles of the fleet of vehicles.
