Hi, i made a robot to follow a straight line at a high speed but there's a high inertia ... i wanted to cross 3 intersection lines and it goes after the 3rd line by 2 other lines !!! , how do i solve this ?

You need a PID (http://www.societyofrobots.com/programming_PID.shtml) system implemented.

Otherwise, if you want a quick fix, have your motors reverse at full speed right after it passes the last line. I hope your motor drivers can handle 2x current and a voltage spike ;)
