Recent advancements in Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) technologies allows equipped vehicles to travel with much shorter headways on freeways, increasing freeway capacity and reducing fuel consumption. The technology, augmented by the capabilities made available through the connected vehicles framework, has opened the door for many significant developments in traffic management and control applications. In this paper, we present a novel multi-agent system approach to resolve conflicts based on a token-based dynamic priority index (PI) concept. Experimental results showed the ability of agents to adapt and form high performance streams in a connected vehicle environment as an emerging behavior.
