Embodiment Construction

[0058] Advanced on-board diagnostics and communication systems (eg, GM's OnStar) enable vehicle manufacturers to offer driver monitoring systems that perform functions for evaluating driver performance, setting insurance premiums based on a greater number of parameters than are available through the OBD port Algorithms to rate and evaluate driver insurability.

[0059] This disclosure describes a system for monitoring one or more driver habits, such as following distance (or tailgating), lane changes, sudden accelerations, sudden decelerations, turns, and the like. The disclosed system monitors information from multiple vehicle sensors to assess a driver's tailgating habits. Driver monitoring systems use telematics to report the monitored information to a central office (eg, employer, insurance company, etc.) for subsequent use, for example, in reprimanding or disciplining drivers or setting insurance rates.

[0060] Advantageously, the unique system disclosed uses vehicle se...

Abstract

A system and method for evaluating driver performance. A driver monitoring system is configured to monitor the performance of a driver of a vehicle communicating wirelessly with the driver monitoring system. The system comprises a driver behavior module that receives from the vehicle event data captured by a plurality of sensors in the vehicle and identifies at least one of a plurality of driver behaviors. A behavior characterization module receives from the driver behavior module the at least one identified driver behavior and characterizes the at least one identified driver behavior into at least one of a plurality of behavior categories. A risk assessment module analyzes the at least one characterized driver behavior in the plurality of behavior categories and determines therefrom a driver profile that may include a risk assessment for the driver of the vehicle system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to systems and methods for evaluating driver performance. Background technique [0002] The information provided in this section is for the purpose of generally presenting the context of the disclosure. To the extent described in this section, the work of the presently named inventors and aspects of the description that may not conform to the prior art at the time of filing are neither expressly nor implicitly admitted to be prior art against the present disclosure. [0003] A particular driver's driving performance may be of value to the driver's employer, especially if the driver operates a vehicle owned by the employer. Driver performance is useful, for example, in warning or penalizing reckless drivers, setting insurance rates, and evaluating insurability. These measures may depend on recorded driving history and aggregated class statistics. [0004] Conventional driver monitoring systems monitor data generated by t...
