In a safe driving support system, a data center is connected to a plurality of vehicles via a communication network. The data center stores a position of a first vehicle of which a G sensor detects that behavior of the vehicle has been disturbed when caution information is received from the first vehicle as a caution-needed spot in a storage device. The data center transmits data of a caution image extracted from data of images in a predetermined period before the caution information has been received out of the data of the images captured by a drive recorder of the first vehicle to a second vehicle approaching the caution-needed spot when the caution information is received. The display of the second vehicle having received the data of the caution image attracts attention by displaying the caution image before the second vehicle arrives at the caution-needed spot.

Safe driving support system and safe driving support method

An information providing device and an information providing method are provided. Processing circuitry receives, from a first vehicle, a piece of video data related to the moment the first vehicle passed an occurrence site. The first vehicle captures a piece of video data by a dashboard camera when passing the occurrence site of a traffic event requiring cautious driving. The processing circuitry extracts a piece of image data representing a situation of the occurrence site from the video related to the piece of video data, and transmits the piece of image data to the second vehicle. When the second vehicle reaches a notification location, a display device of the second vehicle displays an image related to the piece of image data in order to issue an alert.

Information providing device and information providing method

A service support apparatus includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a terminal apparatus of a user or a staff member, and a controller configured to acquire status data indicating a parking status of shared vehicles at a plurality of locations, and transmit presentation data to the terminal apparatus via the communication interface upon detecting an excess of shared vehicles at a first location, a shortage of shared vehicles at a second location, or both based on the acquired status data, the presentation data encouraging the user or the staff member to travel to the second location in a shared vehicle parked at the first location.

Service support apparatus, system, and service support method

A working method for an end portion of a plate member includes heating and pressing the end portion of the plate member formed of a thermoplastic resin in a thickness direction to form a thin portion, folding the thin portion such that a pressed surface is positioned inside to move an outer peripheral end of the thin portion as an end portion on an outer peripheral side of the plate member to the vicinity of a main body portion of the plate member to which an inner end of the thin portion as an end portion on an inner side of the plate member is connected, and pressing the outer peripheral end of the thin portion in the thickness direction to move the outer peripheral end thereof further inward than a surface of the main body portion in the thickness direction.
