One of the main revolutionary features of 5G networks is the ultra-low\nlatency that will enable new services such as those for the future smart\nvehicles. The 5G technology will be able to support extreme-low latency. Thanks\nto new technologies and the wide flexible architecture that integrates new\nspectra and access technologies. In particular, Visible Light Communication\n(VLC) is envisaged as a very promising technology for vehicular communications,\nsince the information can flow by using the lights (as traffic-lights and car\nlights). This paper describes one of the first experiments on the joint use of\n5G and VLC networks to provide real-time information to cars. The applications\nspan from road safety to emergency alarm.\n
