This video shows two video clips (one right after the other) to show how people merge, either manually, or using the cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) automation, into a line of other cars on the highway. The first clip shows a participant merging into a gap in the traffic, with the assistance of the CACC merging automation. The second video shows a participant merging into a gap manually (without CACC). The gaps between the cars are short making merging difficult.
