Selective control system for vehicle operating parameters
First Claim
1. A control system for vehicle operating parameters, comprising:
- data record means for providing accessible information regarding a compliance state and its corresponding benefit relative to a given administrative standard that defines a predetermined vehicle operation mode of a vehicle traveling via a particular route or area;
communication means for identifying a preferred consequential result that is different from the corresponding benefit, which preferred consequential result correlates with one or more vehicle operating parameters;
selection means for implementing the one or more vehicle operating parameters during all or a portion of travel via the particular route or area in a manner to qualify for the preferred consequential result; and
compliance means for processing confirmation of at least one implemented vehicle operating parameter to determine a conformity status for the vehicle pursuant to the given administrative standard.

Abstract
Exemplary methods, systems and components enable selective control of an operational mode for a vehicle that is subject to an administrative standard. In some instances a qualified person or entity may attain a preferred consequential result related to a selected vehicle operation mode that may involve a vehicle operation paradigm and/or a vehicle travel route and/or a vehicle travel destination. In some embodiments, implementation of the selected vehicle operation mode may modify a conformity status of the vehicle relative to the administrative standard. Various accessible records may be maintained regarding administrative compliance states and their respective benefits, as well as regarding certification of preferable consequential results available to qualified recipients based on a correlated vehicle operational mode.
