                 Traffic congestion is one of the leading causes of
                 lost productivity and decreased standard of living in
                 urban settings.  Recent advances in artificial
                 intelligence suggest vehicle navigation by autonomous
                 agents will be possible in the near future.  In
                 previous work, a reservation-based system for
                 alleviating traffic congestion, specifically at
                 intersections was proposed.  This paper extends that
                 prototype implementation in several ways with the aim
                 of making it more implementable in the real world.
                 In particular, we 1) add the ability of vehicles to
                 turn, 2) enable them to accelerate while in the
                 intersection, and 3) augment their interaction
                 capabilities with a detailed protocol such that the
                 vehicles do not need to know anything about the
                 intersection control policy.  The use of this
                 protocol limits the interaction of the driver agent
                 and the intersection manager to the extent that it is
                 a reasonable approximation of reliable wireless
                 communication.  Finally, we describe how different
                 intersection control policies can be expressed with
                 this protocol and limited exchange of information.
                 All three improvements are fully implemented and
                 tested, and we present detailed empirical results
                 validating their effectiveness.
