Abstract

Embodiments include methods, systems and computer program products for determining a safe driving speed for a vehicle. Aspects include obtaining a location and a direction of travel of the vehicle, obtaining one or more operating conditions of the vehicle, and obtaining historical accident data that corresponds to the location of the vehicle under operating conditions that are similar to the one or more conditions of the vehicle. Aspects also include analyzing, by a processor, the historical accident data to identify the safe driving speed for the vehicle, wherein the safe driving speed is determined to be a maximum speed that is associated with maximum acceptable risk of an accident and causing an indication of the safe driving speed to be displayed to an operator of the vehicle.
