Early detection of available storage capacity for collaborative upload

A vehicle control system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor to store instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• receiving information from a first mobile access point (AP);
• determining, based on the information, available storage capacity of the first mobile AP to receive sender data of a sender vehicle;
• in response to determining the available storage capacity of the first mobile AP is an amount sufficient to receive the sender data, evaluating the first mobile AP against other available mobile APs with sufficient available storage capacity to receive the sender data of the sender vehicle;
• selecting, based on the evaluation, a mobile AP from the first mobile AP and the other available mobile APs with sufficient available storage capacity to be a designated mobile AP to receive the sender data;
• and
• sending the sender data of the sender vehicle to the designated mobile AP.
