Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to promoting responsible and accountable driving using the Internet. More particularly, the present invention provides an apparatus and method wherewith observers of a vehicle may submit complimentary or critical reports of the vehicle driver's driving through the Internet by referencing a vehicle reference number unique to that vehicle and preferably displayed on or near the rear of the vehicle. The reports entered through the Internet are immediately relayed by a central processing unit to the vehicle owner and compiled with other reports for that vehicle number in a periodic summary report also sent to the vehicle owner.
  • a method is also disclosed for promoting accountable driving by displaying a vehicle reference number on privately, publicly or commercially owned vehicles to allow vehicle owners to track the driving of the vehicles by nonowners such as teenagers and employees, to track a vehicle owner's own driving, and to reduce road rage in other nearby observing drivers.
  • Another method is disclosed to promote accountable driving by offering vehicle insurance discounts to drivers of vehicles displaying reportable vehicle reference numbers.
  • the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for promoting responsible and accountable driving of vehicles by providing driver observers with a relatively simple method of reporting driving incidents to vehicle owners through the Internet.
  • a message referencing an Internet location is displayed on a vehicle.
  • the message may include one or more of a trademark to indicate that the vehicle may be reported, an Internet address at which the vehicle may be reported and a vehicle reference number.
  • the observer may locate the Internet address and submit an incident report online.
  • the data from the incident report is immediately and automatically sent by email, facsimile or postal carrier to the owner of the vehicle by a central reporting server and associated processor.
  • the data from the incident report is also automatically input into a summary report for the vehicle reference number which is periodically distributed to the owner of the associated vehicle by email, facsimile, or postal carrier.
  • the significantly reduced cost of the present invention permits a service employing one or more embodiments of the present invention to be purchased by individuals, companies, agencies and groups interested in promoting driving safety at relatively minimal cost.
  • a vehicle reference number on a driver's vehicle and a method for observers to report any observed behavior or misbehavior drivers are more likely to drive responsibly because they have become more personally accountable for their actions.
  • the reports may have no measurable force in law, particular behavior which is f equently reported may be more easily encouraged or corrected by a conscientious driver, a parent training a teenage driver, or an employer.
  • road rage by other, nearby observing drivers may be reduced using this method by allowing such observing drivers to report an incident and inform the owner of a vehicle of the irresponsible and excessive manner in which the vehicle was driven, rather than becoming enraged and potentially dangerous to others because of it.
  • a method of encouraging the use of reportable vehicle reference numbers is disclosed wherein insurance companies and other businesses interested in promoting safe driving may offer discounts and other incentives to drivers of vehicles displaying a reportable vehicle reference number, due to the reduced accident statistics associated with vehicle owners using the vehicle reporting service. Additionally, the discounts and incentives may be provided to drivers for submitting periodic driving reports from a driving reporting service.

  • owner is specifically intended to refer to the owner, the owner's designated agent or other representative such as, by example only, a safety director of an organization, or other entity interested in receiving reports regarding a particular vehicle.
  • An owner of a vehicle though legally liable for accidents, injuries and damage caused by a driver of the vehicle even when the owner is not present, cannot always be aware of how a vehicle owned by the owner is being driven without resorting to extreme measures.
  • the present invention enables a vehicle owner to affordably maintain a form of supervision over operation of the vehicle when the vehicle owner is not physically with the vehicle.
  • one or more vehicle displays may be sent to the vehicle owner by U.S. mail, other postal carrier, or another appropriate method.
  • the vehicle owner may apply one to a vehicle, preferably so that it is visible from the rear of the vehicle, such as on the vehicle's rear window, bumper or trunk.
  • the owner may optionally apply a second vehicle display to the vehicle so that it is visible from the front or side of the vehicle, such as on the front bumper, hood, side door panel or any window.
  • the vehicle owner must activate a vehicle reference number for the owner's car at the Internet address before any reports may be submitted by observers.
  • the vehicle reference number is automatically activated prior to sending it to the vehicle owner.
  • FIGS 1, 2, 3 and 4 illustrate particular embodiments of a vehicle display 2 according to embodiments of the present invention.
  • the vehicle display 2 is formed as a sticker or other permanent or temporary decal affixed by friction, magnetism, adhesive or other means whereby the vehicle display 2 may be attached to a vehicle.
  • Displays such as bumper stickers, window stickers, magnetized door signs, window decals and the like are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art and conventionally include a substrate of paper, plastic, vinyl, or a magnetic material having a message printed thereon. Such displays may be formed in virtually any size or shape. It is contemplated that the vehicle display of the present invention may also be formed having a reflective surface to increase and enhance nighttime visibility and may be formed in various large and small formats.
  • Each vehicle display 2 preferably includes at least a vehicle reference number 4 and an Internet address 6 at which an observer may submit an incident report.
  • the vehicle reference number 4 is no more than seven characters to better enable an observer to remember the reference number, though the use of greater numbers of characters is contemplated as within the scope of the invention.
  • the vehicle reference number 4 may be systematically or randomly assigned by the processor, or systematically or randomly selected by the subscriber or service provider. It is also contemplated that the number may be assigned as the license plate state and number of the vehicle on which the vehicle display is to be placed.
  • the assigned number is the license plate state and number of the vehicle
  • the Internet address 6 would then prompt the observer for the vehicle's license plate number and associated state or state code.
  • the vehicle display 2 would indicate only a short message, such as a trademark, logo or other symbol or word which would invoke an association with an Internet location at which an observer may report on the vehicle (See FIG. 4).
  • a message may also include a vehicle reference number, or the licence plate number may be used to identify and properly refer to the vehicle.
  • the Internet address 6 displayed on the vehicle display 2 is preferably easily remembered and associated with driving or reporting such as "PleaseReportMyDriving.com” as shown in Figure 1, or "Drive4Life.com” as shown in Figures 2 and 3. It may also be preferable to include other terms or phrases 8 and 10 to further clarify the purpose of the vehicle display 2.
  • any person observing the vehicle, its operation, or the behavior of those within the vehicle may send a report directly to the vehicle's owner by locating the Internet address listed on the vehicle display and submitting a report referencing the vehicle's reference number.
  • reporting is effective for both complimentary and critical comments.
  • FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a computer system 12 networked through the Internet.
  • one or more observer terminals 14, such as a home or office computer with a connection to the Internet are connected to an Internet address on a central reporting server 1 including an accessible Internet address configured through software, hardware or a combination of both, according to one or more embodiments of the present invention.
  • Operation and appearance of the Internet address may be controlled through the central reporting server 16 by an associated processor 18 having software appropriately configured by one of ordinary skill in the art.
  • Auto-responders to streamline the response of the Internet address to those accessing it, and to make the site more user friendly, are also contemplated.
  • an observer may fill out and submit a report by selecting an appropriate option on the Internet address' main menu and following the instructions included therein.
  • the report preferably includes at least the vehicle reference number and a statement of the observed behavior. More preferably, however, the report also includes the location and time of the observed behavior. Any submitted report including a vehicle reference number is automatically posted to the vehicle owner's account which may be accessed by the vehicle owner at any time.
  • the report is also preferably, with the exception of necessary processing and transmitting delays, immediately sent to the vehicle owner by email. It is also contemplated that the system may be configured to send the report by facsimile or a postal carrier if email is unavailable. In this way, the owner of the vehicle has substantially an immediate opportunity to review the details of the report and assess the actual risk incurred or benefit caused by the owner's vehicle and the driver of it. From the report details, the owner may identify the person who was actually driving the vehicle at the reported time and, depending on the circumstances and frequency of the reports, the owner may take action to compliment, reprimand and/or instruct the driver of the vehicle as necessary.
  • the driver of the vehicle knows the vehicle reference number and reporting system is in place, the driver is encouraged to drive more responsibly, and is more personally accountable for driving behaviors. Additionally, because the vehicle owner may receive information as to how the vehicle is being driven in the owner's absence, drivers of the vehicle are more likely to feel accountable for driving behavior when the owner is not present. In the event that the vehicle owner is driving the vehicle at the time of the reported behavior, the report serves to inform the owner of driving behaviors or problems with the vehicle, such as a nonfunctioning tail or headlight, of which the owner may not be aware, giving the owner a greater opportunity to be aware of his or her own possibly offensive or dangerous driving habits.
  • the methods of the present invention may be employed not only by large interstate commercial trucking companies, but also by smaller trucking companies previously precluded from such a reporting system by cost, government entities and other businesses for fleet cars, law enforcement vehicles, public transit vehicles, private business and passenger vehicles, and any and all other vehicles for which public supervision would encourage more responsible operation. It is further contemplated that in addition to the vehicles listed above, operation of other vehicles such as boats, jet skis, motorcycles, snowmobiles, all- terrain vehicles, scooters, and the like, would benefit from the invention disclosed herein.
  • observer reports may include both complimentary and critical reports on driving and other vehicle behaviors such as excessive noise or other pollutants, improper parking, improper passenger behaviors, and the like. Whether it be used by law enforcement, business, government, or the parent of a teenager, if the owner of a vehicle is receiving repeated, documented reports of driving problems associated with a particular driver, the owner of the vehicle will be more likely to take appropriate steps to correct a perceived problem than if the owner is not receiving those reports. It is believed that widespread use of the methods disclosed herein will substantially reduce vehicle accidents as previously shown, improve vehicle safety, encourage more responsible driving behaviors and place more accountability for vehicle operation on the vehicle owner.
  • the present invention offers a nonviolent alternative to conventional methods of expressing the rage which may dramatically defuse and reduce road rage violence.
  • the offending driver may be oblivious to the rage of the offended driver.
  • the offended driver may then either hold the rage inside, which distracts the offended driver and may affect the offended driver's driving, or may take counteractions against the offending driver either physically, or by yelling obscenities or using offensive hand signals.
  • These actions by the offended driver may relieve the offended driver's rage, but the corresponding potentially dangerous driving maneuvers and distractions, as well as the potential escalation of the conflict, creates a greater risk for accidents and injury.
  • vehicle owners may subscribe to a vehicle reporting service, pay for an annual subscription by a credit card or other gift certificate, register one or more vehicles, read and download reports, make changes to their accounts and file reports regarding other vehicles without the additional cost resulting from the operators, data entry clerks and the toll free telephone numbers required by existing services. Further, because the report data is entered and submitted by the observer in an appropriate data format through the service's Internet form, the response time required to implement the methods described herein is substantially instantaneous. [0039] In another aspect of the present invention, responsible and accountable driving is promoted by insurance companies or other groups or individuals committed to promoting safer driving.
  • a discount on insurance rates is offered to owners of vehicles participating in a vehicle reporting service such as that previously described herein. Due to the significant reduction m accidents and losses reported by companies insuring commercial trucking companies when the insured trucks began displaying the "How's My Driving?" stickers, it is believed that insurers of other types of vehicles may find similar results from other types of vehicles displaying similar indicia.
  • insurance companies provide discounts to insureds for driving vehicles which have safety features which reduce the chance of, or the size of, a loss on the part of the insurance company, such as air bags, automatic seatbelts, or a security system. Similarly, insurance companies also provide good student discounts for younger drivers responsive to data indicating that good students are more responsible and thus, safer drivers. Insurance companies also provide discounts to home owners participating in a monitored theft and fire security system service.
  • an insurance company offers a discount on insurance premiums, or at least refunds the cost of subscribing to the vehicle reporting service, when a vehicle displays a vehicle reference number and reporting method such as those described herein, whether it be through the Internet or by phone.
  • insurers of private passenger cars offer insurance discounts to drivers who drive cars displaying a reportable vehicle reference number and an indication of a reporting method such as an Internet address.
  • companies, groups or associations concerned with driving safety such as consumer products or services sales companies, membership organizations and the like, offer promotional items, discounts or credits to vehicle owners who agree to display, or are already displaying, a reportable vehicle reference number and indication of a reporting method.
  • insurance companies provide vehicle displays and a reporting service to insurance customers in return for a discount on the customer's insurance.
  • the reports may then be directed to the insurance company as well as the vehicle owner or may be directed solely to the insurance company.
  • the insurance company is ensured an opportunity to evaluate the reports for a particular driver or vehicle.
