Due to the emergence of new technologies over the past decade, vehicle speed assistance systems in intelligent transportation systems have frequently been discussed. Up to now, a systematic literature review has not been presented to discover and evaluate the different vehicle speed assistance approaches for on‐road vehicles in intelligent transportation systems. To overcome this issue, this research identified peer‐reviewed articles published in the most well‐known libraries from 2011 to 2020. 79 primary studies were then projected and a systematic analysis of the selected literature was conducted. The findings show different driving goals, namely eco‐driving, safety, comfort, travel time improvement as well as the high‐level objectives addressed by vehicle speed assistance systems. The analytical discussions are provided to show different perspectives, properties and limitations of the existing solutions. This analysis allows to provide future challenges and directions in this field of research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
