1. A method for implementing a restricted area alert policy, comprising:
- detecting a geographic position of a vehicle;
referencing information regarding at least one geographic area in which travel is restricted;
comparing the detected geographic position of the vehicle with the referenced information;
determining that the detected geographic position of the vehicle is within the at least one geographic area in which vehicular travel is restricted; and
automatically generating an alert message to an operator of the vehicle based on the determination.

Abstract
A method and system are provided for generating a restricted area alert. As a vehicle nears geographic location(s) through which traffic is restricted, sensor(s) detect the geographic position of the vehicle, and compare that geographic position with information regarding known restricted areas. Upon actual or anticipated entry of the vehicle into the restricted area, an alert message will be generated, formatted and transmitted to the vehicle, and/or additional recipients.
