Techniques described herein improve direct communication channel reliability in a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. The techniques include a (wireless communication) device that uses a first licensed band to perform a cellular network communication through a first interface (e.g., Uu), and further uses a shared spectrum to perform a V2X communication through a direct communication channel interface. The device then monitors and compares a bandwidth requirement of the V2X communication with a bandwidth of the shared spectrum. In response to the bandwidth that is less than the bandwidth requirement, the device selects a second licensed band that includes a bandwidth that is at least equal to the bandwidth requirement. Further, the selected second licensed band is different from the first licensed band to avoid channel interference. In other embodiments, the device uses the licensed band to directly establish the V2X communication.
