Vehicular ad hoc networks are a special type of ad hoc network where each vehicle acts as a mobile node. This communication between the vehicles is mainly for the safety, entertainment and comfort. For the grouping of the vehicles the cluster formation has been used. In this paper a survey of the different types of clustering has been done. Taking into account the parameters such as the mobility, the transmission range , the vehicle speed ,the direction of the vehicle and the connectivity various clustering algorithms [11] have been proposed which helps in the enhancement ofthe above mentioned parameters. Thus the different methodologies [12] of clustering can be applied based on the need of the vehicular environment.
