Abstract This material describes the development of an intelligent transport system for controlling the movement of a column of unmanned vehicles with a leading pilot vehicle in order to increase the efficiency and safety of freight and passenger transportation in remote regions of the North of Russia, as well as in the Arctic and Antarctic. The obtained scientific results allow us to move on to the creation of new types of freight and passenger vehicles that can move unmanned modes over long distances, but at the same time, the possibility of direct human intervention remains. The introduction of this type of vehicles will improve the efficiency of freight and passenger transportation, reduce fuel consumption by predicting the traffic situation and increase the safety of transportation on public roads. The materials describe the circuit diagram of the components of the slave and leading intelligent vehicle, give mathematical models of some control systems and describe the tests that confirmed the operability of this type of vehicle. Tests have shown the adequacy of mathematical models and the complete autonomy of driven vehicles that follow the lead.
