1. A remote station comprising:
a transceiver;
a memory configured to store baseline static paths and dynamic paths of vehicles through an intersection, wherein the baseline static paths refer to at least one of previous predetermined paths, averaged paths or historical paths, and wherein the dynamic paths refer to current detected paths; and
a control module configured to (i) compare the dynamic paths to the baseline static paths, (ii) determine whether there is a statistical significance between the dynamic paths and the baseline static paths, (iii) broadcast via the transceiver to a plurality of vehicles in or proximate to the intersection a first map message indicating the dynamic paths in response to there being a statistical significance between the dynamic paths and the baseline static paths, and (iv) broadcast via the transceiver to the plurality of vehicles in or proximate to the intersection a second map message indicating the baseline static paths in response to there not being a statistical significance between the dynamic paths and the baseline static paths, wherein the first map message and the second map message are broadcasted to each of the plurality of vehicles such that the plurality of vehicles, based on the first map message and the second map message, at least one of i) determine whether a potential collision exists in the intersection, ii) estimate and predict locations and paths of the plurality of vehicles through the intersection, and iii) determine and alter a path of that vehicle through the intersection.
