  Trust management of Internet of connected vehicles has been a hot topic
during the recent years with the rapid development of UGV technologies.
However, existing resolutions based on trustworthiness verification among
vehicles make the traffic event transmission quite inefficient. In this paper,
we assume that the deployed RSUs can provide efficient communication between
any pair of RSU and vehicle, and propose Vcash, a reputation framework for
identifying denial of traffic service, to resolve the trustworthiness problem
in the application level of the Internet of connected vehicles. In our
reputation framework, every vehicle communicates with the RSU directly for
traffic event verification, and spread verified traffic event notification. We
borrow the idea of market trading, and set up trading rules to restrict the
malicious vehicle's spread of false message, and to encourage vehicles to
contribute to the traffic event monitoring and verification. To evaluate the
effectiveness of our reputation framework, we conduct simulation experiment.
Our experiment results indicate that our proposal manages to avoid bogus event
spread, and a vehicle in our framework has to contribute to the traffic event
detection to normally employ the traffic service.
