Smart cities are based on connected devices generating large quantities of data every instant. These data can be stored at a nearby edge location for initial processing but later sending the data to the backend data centers for storage and further analysis consumes considerable network bandwidth. In this article, we propose a large-scale data migration framework using vehicles. The framework uses a neural network to identify suitable vehicles as data mules, ones moving toward the data destination, potentially reducing the load from backend networks in terms of bandwidth usage and overall energy consumption. We compare the framework with data transfers using the traditional Internet and an approach without machine intelligence. The proposed framework performs well in terms of data loss, transfer time, energy, and CO
