First Claim
1. A vehicle configured to traverse a portion of a vehicle transportation network, the vehicle comprising:
- a primary graphical display portion;
a secondary graphical display portion;
an auditory presentation device; and
a processor configured to execute instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium to;
identify a first vehicle operation assistance information item, the first vehicle operation assistance information item indicating a location of an expected vehicle operation control transfer,on a condition that an immanency for the first vehicle operation assistance information item exceeds a maximum relevant immanence, store information representing the first vehicle operation assistance information item, andon a condition that the immanency is within the maximum relevant immanence;
determine a first urgency based on the immanency; and
present a representation of the first vehicle operation assistance information item, wherein presenting the representation of the first vehicle operation assistance information item includes;
on a condition that the first urgency indicates a warning urgency or an advisory urgency;
controlling the primary graphical display portion to present a graphical representation of the first vehicle operation assistance information item, wherein controlling the primary graphical display portion to present the graphical representation includes controlling the primary graphical display portion to present a first portion of the graphical representation; and
controlling the secondary graphical display portion to present the graphical representation, wherein controlling the secondary graphical display portion to present the graphical representation includes controlling the secondary graphical display portion to present a second portion of the graphical representation,on a condition that the first urgency indicates an advance urgency, controlling the secondary graphical display portion to present the graphical representation of the first vehicle operation assistance information item, andon a condition that the first urgency indicates a warning urgency or an advance urgency, controlling the auditory presentation device to present an auditory representation of the first vehicle operation assistance information item.
