Abstract

A vehicle electrical system controller is used to monitor selected operating variables, or predetermined operator actions to identify a delivery stop, and upon the vehicle coming to a stop, invoking various vehicle functions to give warning to others that the vehicle is stopped for a delivery, to assist the driver in making the delivery, and, potentially, securing the vehicle during any period the operator is outside of the vehicle.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to vehicles, and in particular, to commercial vehicles used for regional deliveries. The driver / operator on the vehicle is required to make many actions at each delivery parking point, possibly in part in a predetermined order. Background technique [0002] When a truck operator stops for a delivery, he or she often needs to perform multiple actions. For example, the operator is required to bring the vehicle close to the parking spot. If parking occurs in an area open to vehicle or pedestrian traffic, the operator will be required to remind the driver to inform him / her that he / she is about to park. To do this, hazard flashing lights can be lit to indicate traffic conditions that far exceed short-term stops. Once the vehicle is close to the parking spot, the parking brake can be requested. A working light or dome light can be turned on if necessary in the vehicle. The door to the cargo area must be unlocked or opened. It may als...
