14. An electronic device mounted on a first vehicle, comprising a receiver and a processing device configured to:
-
after a message, which is broadcasted periodically by a second vehicle, is received on a channel by the receiver, extract from the received message road information which indicates on which road the second vehicle is travelling, lane information which indicates on which lane the second vehicle is travelling, and layer information which indicates on which layer of a multi-layer viaduct the second vehicle is travelling, the channel being dedicated for vehicular safety use; and determine whether there is risk that the first and second vehicles will hit each other based on the extracted road information, lane information, and layer information. - View Dependent Claims (15)
