METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR VEHICLE COMMUNICATION

Methods and systems are proposed for a communication network. In one example, a system for a vehicle comprises a controller of the vehicle comprising instructions stored in memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to gather data related to a vehicle event at a location and store the data in memory in response to the location being free of a roadside unit (RSU), where the controller is further configured to establish a vehicle-to-infrastructure network in wireless communication with the vehicle at a second location different from the location.
