1. A communication device, comprising a controller to:
- receive from a system a broadcasted vehicle velocity;
detect that a difference between a velocity of a vehicle carrying the communication device and the broadcasted vehicle velocity exceeds a threshold; and
determine from a random policy whether to transmit the velocity of the vehicle to the system.
