For example, the communication unit 110 may receive map data, traffic information data, and so on from an external server. The autonomous driving unit 140d may generate an autonomous driving route and a driving plan from the obtained data. The control unit 120 may control the driving unit 140a such that the vehicle or autonomous driving vehicle 100 may move along the autonomous driving route according to the driving plan (e.g., speed/direction control). During autonomous driving, the communication unit 110 may aperiodically/periodically acquire recent traffic information data from the external server and acquire surrounding traffic information data from neighboring vehicles. During autonomous driving, the sensor unit 140c may obtain information about a vehicle state and/or surrounding environment information. The autonomous driving unit 140d may update the autonomous driving route and the driving plan based on the newly obtained data/information. The communication unit 110 may transfer information about a vehicle position, the autonomous driving route, and/or the driving plan to the external server. The external server may predict traffic information data using AI technology based on the information collected from vehicles or autonomous driving vehicles and provide the predicted traffic information data to the vehicles or the autonomous driving vehicles.
