Owning a car has become very common nowadays, and in recent years cars gadgets have turn out to be very popular and so researchers decided that it is time to include wireless capability into the car. The idea of adding wireless capability into cars will result in the formation of the Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) where the cars represent the wireless nodes in the network. Significant number of benefits is expected from this technology. However, there have been concerns about how the different road traffic conditions will affect the existing Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) routing protocols’ performance and also how these routing protocols will perform in these VANET.
