DRUNK DRIVING PREVENTION SYSTEM AND EXTERNAL SERVER USED FOR THE SAME
First Claim
1. A drunk driving prevention system comprising:
- an external server; and
an on-vehicle component, whereinthe on-vehicle component is equipped with a detection unit that detects an alcohol concentration in an exhalation of a driver of a vehicle, on which the on-vehicle component is mounted, an acquisition unit that acquires information on a current position of the vehicle, and an on-vehicle side communication unit that transmits to the external server the alcohol concentration detected as well as the information on the current position of the vehicle, andthe external server is equipped with a storage unit that stores a plurality of criteria that relate to an alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving and are different from one another as a result of geographical differences, an external server side communication unit that receives the alcohol concentration and the information on the current position of the vehicle, which are transmitted from the on-vehicle component, and a determination unit that determines, based on that one of the criteria in the storage unit which corresponds to the current position of the vehicle, whether the alcohol concentration received is the alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving.

Abstract
A drunk driving prevention system is equipped with an external server and an on-vehicle component. The on-vehicle component is equipped with a detection unit that detects an alcohol concentration of a driver, an acquisition unit that acquires information on a current position of a vehicle, and a communication unit that transmits to the external server the alcohol concentration as well as the current position information. The external server is equipped with a storage unit that stores a plurality of criteria that relate to an alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving and are different from one another as a result of geographical differences, a communication unit that receives the alcohol concentration and the current position information, and a determination unit that determines, based on that one of the criteria, whether the alcohol concentration received is an alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving.

11. An external server that prevents drunk driving via communication with an on-vehicle component, comprising:
-
a storage unit that stores a plurality of criteria that relate to an alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving and are different from one another as a result of geographical differences; a reception unit that receives from the on-vehicle component an alcohol concentration in an exhalation of a driver of a vehicle, on which the on-vehicle component is mounted, and information on a current position of the vehicle; a determination unit that determines, based on that one of the criteria in the storage unit which corresponds to the current position of the vehicle, whether the alcohol concentration received is the alcohol concentration falling under drunk driving, and a transmission unit that transmits to the on-vehicle component a driving stop command for restraining driving of the vehicle from being started or continued, when the determination unit makes an affirmative determination.
