Generating emergency vehicle warnings
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for generating data representative of an emergency vehicle warning and/or alternate vehicle route, the method comprising:
- receiving, via or at one or more processors mounted on a non-emergency vehicle, emergency vehicle data via wireless communication and/or data transmission, wherein the emergency vehicle data is representative of an emergency vehicle route;
determining emergency vehicle warning data and an alternate vehicle route data, via or at the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, wherein the alternate vehicle route directs the non-emergency vehicle to avoid the route of the emergency vehicle or otherwise alleviates an amount that the non-emergency vehicle interferes with the route of the emergency vehicle;
causing, via or at the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, the emergency vehicle warning data and alternate vehicle route data, to be visibly or audibly presented, or otherwise provided, to a driver of the non-emergency vehicle to facilitate alleviating potential vehicle accidents between emergency response and non-emergency response vehicles, and/or shortening emergency response times for emergency vehicles;
receiving, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, an opt-in selection, wherein the opt-in selection is representative of a content of desired insurance policy related data and exclusion of personal information;
generating, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, insurance policy data for the driver of the non-emergency vehicle based upon the opt-in selection and further based upon the driver following recommendations associated with emergency vehicle warnings or alternate vehicle routing that avoids emergency vehicles en route; and
transmitting, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, to an insurance provider remote server to facilitate the insurance provider providing auto insurance cost savings to the driver or other insured based upon the insurance policy data and/or functionality associated with emergency vehicle avoidance.

Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to generating emergency vehicle warnings, alternate vehicle routing recommendations and/or insurance-related data based upon emergency vehicle warning data. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to generating data representative of emergency vehicle warnings and/or alternate routing based upon real-time information related to an emergency vehicle. The information related to the emergency vehicle may include emergency vehicle origination location data, emergency vehicle current location data, emergency vehicle route data, and/or emergency vehicle destination location data. An emergency vehicle warning and/or alternate vehicle routing for non-emergency response vehicles may be generated based further on information related to a non-emergency vehicle. In one aspect, an emergency vehicle may wirelessly communicate with the non-emergency vehicle and/or an insurance provider remote server. The insurance provider may adjust auto insurance for insureds having vehicles with the vehicle safety functionality discussed herein to reflect lower risk and provide insurance savings to customers.

9. A vehicle-mounted system of a non-emergency vehicle for generating emergency vehicle warning data and/or alternate route data, the system comprising one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle configured to:
-
receive emergency vehicle data via wireless communication or data transmission, wherein the emergency vehicle data is representative of an emergency vehicle route; generate an alternate route based upon computer analysis or comparison of the emergency vehicle data and non-emergency vehicle data, the non-emergency vehicle data associated with a route and current location of the non-emergency vehicle; present the alternate route to the driver of the vehicle, or the vehicle itself, such that the driver of the vehicle, or the vehicle itself, may avoid the route of the emergency vehicle or that shortening of the response time for emergency vehicles is facilitated; receive, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, an opt-in selection, wherein the opt-in selection is representative of a content of desired insurance policy related data and exclusion of personal information; at least one of;
collect insurance policy data for the driver of the non-emergency vehicle or generate insurance policy data for the driver of the non-emergency vehicle, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, wherein the insurance policy data for the driver of the non-emergency vehicle is based upon the opt-in selection and further based upon the driver following recommendations associated with emergency vehicle warnings or alternate vehicle routing that avoids emergency vehicles en route, andtransmit, via the one or more processors mounted on the non-emergency vehicle, the insurance policy data to an insurance provider remote server to facilitate the insurance provider providing auto insurance cost savings to the driver or other insured based upon the insurance policy data and/or functionality associated with emergency vehicle avoidance. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer implemented method for generating data representative of an emergency vehicle warning and/or alternate vehicle route, the method comprising:
-
receiving, via or at one or more processors associated with, or mounted on, a non-emergency vehicle, emergency vehicle data via wireless communication or data transmission, wherein the emergency vehicle data is representative of an emergency vehicle route; generating, via or at the one or more processors associated with, or mounted on, the non-emergency vehicle, emergency vehicle warning data and alternate vehicle route data based upon computer analysis or comparison of the emergency vehicle data with non-emergency vehicle data, the non-emergency vehicle data including a route and current location of the non-emergency vehicle; causing, via or at the one or more processors associated with, or mounted on, the non-emergency vehicle, the emergency vehicle warning data and alternate vehicle route data, to be visually or audibly presented, or otherwise provided, to a driver of the non-emergency vehicle to facilitate alleviating potential vehicle accidents between emergency response and non-emergency response vehicles; receiving, via or at the one or more processors associated with, mounted on, the non-emergency vehicle, an opt-in selection, wherein the opt-in selection is representative of a content of desired insurance policy related data and exclusion of personal information; generating, via or at the one or more processors associated with, or mounted on, the non-emergency vehicle, insurance policy data for the driver of the non-emergency vehicle based upon the opt-in selection and further based upon the driver following recommendations associated with emergency vehicle warnings or alternate vehicle routing that avoids emergency vehicles en route; and transmitting, via or at the one or more processors associated with, or mounted on, the non-emergency vehicle, to an insurance provider remote server to facilitate the insurance provider providing auto insurance cost savings to the driver or other insured based upon the insurance policy data and/or functionality associated with emergency vehicle avoidance. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
