Driver safety, vehicle safety, and environment safety may be scored based on a variety of input data concerning a driver, a vehicle, or an environment in which the vehicle drives. An overall safety score may be generated based on at least some of these three scores. These scores may be compared to thresholds to trigger or initiate actions such as providing notifications to drivers, raising or reducing vehicle insurance rates, providing coupons and promotions to drivers, or limiting vehicle speed in a manner that is personalized to the driver and/or vehicle and/or environment.

Dynamic driver and vehicle analytics based on vehicle tracking and driving statistics

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods avoiding collisions by monitoring the presence and alertness of a person in a vehicle. The alertness of that person may be monitored by identifying actions performed by that person when an automated driving assistant is used in a vehicle. Systems and method consistent with the present disclosure may monitor the alertness of a person that is located in a driving position of a vehicle according to criteria associated with particular individuals or with criteria associated with specific protocols. When a system or method consistent with the present disclosure identifies that a person is not alert, a corrective action may be initiated that reduces likelihood of a collision.

Driver alertness warning system and method

The present disclosure is directed to methods and apparatus for controlling a vehicle based on motion or kinematic data received by a computer when the behavior of a driver is being monitored. Such methods and apparatus may generate one or more safety indices that may include a driver score, a vehicle safety score, and/or an environment safety score. These safety indices may optionally be weighted and combined into an overall safety score, grade, or index. The safety scores or indices may be used to generate a personalized speed threshold or acceleration threshold for a vehicle and/or a driver of the vehicle. Methods and apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may result in the speed of a vehicle being reduced, an increase in vehicle location accuracy, or functions such as headlights or windshield wipers or automated driving assistance being turned on to increase safety.

Vehicle operation analytics, feedback, and enhancement

The present disclosure is directed to apparatus, methods, and non-transitory storage medium for controlling the maximum speed of a vehicle as that vehicle travels along a route. Apparatus and methods consistent with the present disclosure may receive location information from an electronic device that is located at a vehicle and may provide information to the electronic device at that controls the maximum speed of the vehicle as speed limits change along the route.

Vehicle operation characteristic control

Driving behavior for a particular driver may be gathered and analyzed over a time period, such as a year or a duration of the driver's employment at a particular employer. The driving behavior is received by a server from a positioning device as multiple streams of position data at different time stretches throughout the time period, each stream of position data associated with a route of a plurality of routes driven by at least one vehicle. The server generates speed data from the streams of position data and compares the speed data to retrieved speed limit data for those routes. The server generates a report with at least a speeding percentage value corresponding to how often the driver was speeding while driving during the time period. The report is then sent to the driver's computing device.

Driver history via vehicle data acquisition and analysis

Vehicle speed limiter

A fleet manager may communicate desired driving behavior, including maximum speed, desired route, areas to avoid, and other information to operators of vehicles in the fleet. The communication may be via an application on a mobile device, vehicle computer, or other device associated with each driver or vehicle. In operation, an administrator, such as, for example, a fleet manager, may communicate instructions to one or more vehicles, for example a vehicle of a fleet of vehicles.

Fleet manager based vehicle control

Driving behavior may be analyzed based on other vehicles in proximity to a tracked or monitored vehicle. GPS data is collected from the monitored vehicle and other vehicles in physical or geographic proximity thereto. A determination is made as to whether the vehicle in the physical or geographical area is exhibiting aberrant behavior. The aberrant behavior may be determined in view of other vehicles in the geographical area. If aberrant behavior is detected, an alert may be generated and transmitted to an administrator.

Identification of driver abnormalities in a traffic flow

The present invention relates to the field of safety management of one or more vehicles, and more particularly, to a system and method for analyzing information relating to a vehicle's performance characteristics such as speed against environmental attributes such as speed limits to assess a vehicle and operator's tendency to operate according to preset or other criteria.

System and method for evaluating vehicle and operator performance

Accuracy of a positioning device may be determined without requiring the device to be at any specific location, such as a test location. Instead of comparing the reported location and directional data to a known location and directional data, the present technology may use multiple discrete location and directional reports for comparison with the reported data at multiple locations. The multiple comparisons are used to assess the relative accuracy of the positional telematics system. The reported location may be a GPS location or from another positioning system.
