A driving accident simulation, having a head-wearable user interface (e.g., a head-worn virtual-reality display), may be used to inform a driver of the driver's potential liability under different insurance options. The simulation may determine damages caused by the simulated accident, and identify multiple insurance options and the resulting user liability under each option. The simulation may also be used to assess an insurance adjuster's ability to estimate damages from an accident, by receiving the adjuster's estimate and comparing it to the simulation's own estimate of damages. In some embodiments, the simulation may present a driver with a simulated view from a point of view of another party to the simulated accident.

Systems and methods are provided for processing notifications regarding issues with nearby vehicles. A roadside reporter receives notifications from individuals or computing devices reporting problems or violations associated with nearby vehicles, and the notification for uniqueness and authenticity. Upon determining that the notification is unique and authentic, the roadside reporter system notifies the driver of the nearby vehicle and other relevant parties about the problem or violation. The roadside reporter may issue rewards to the reporting user. The roadside reporter system further allows the driver of the nearby vehicle to respond to the notification, and subsequently provides the driver with incentives to address the problem or violation.

Systems and methods are provided for acquiring and analyzing vehicle operation data in conjunction with traffic light information to manage traffic and avoid collisions. A traffic management system determines whether a vehicle is likely to be involved in a collision, based on at least vehicle operation data and the status of traffic lights. If it is determined that a vehicle is likely to be involved in a collision, the traffic management system may issue a notification or warning to the vehicle, e.g., instructing the vehicle to increase or decrease its rate of acceleration, and/or apply its brakes. Where the vehicle does not respond to the notification or warning, the traffic management system may take control of the vehicle, and notify and warn other vehicles and/or systems of its actions. Where the vehicle responds to the notification or warning, the traffic management system may calculate and recommend an insurance benefit.
