Vehicle management system
First Claim
1. A vehicle management system installed in a vehicle being defined with an unique identification code and to be running on at least one specific road for receiving management control by a remote control center, said at least one specific road each including at least one entrance and at least one exit, said at least one entrance each having at least one entrance checkpoint representing the corresponding entrance, said at least one entrance checkpoint each providing a global position information, said at least one exit each having at least one exit checkpoint representing the corresponding exit, said at least one exit checkpoint each providing a global position information;
- wherein the vehicle management system comprising;
a global positioning module adapted to compute a current position information of said vehicle;
wireless communication means;
memory means, said memory means having stored therein the global position information of said at least one entrance checkpoint and said at least one exit checkpoint; and
processor means adapted to compare the current position information of said vehicle to the global position information of said at least one entrance checkpoint and to control said wireless communication means to send an entrance information representing a matched entrance checkpoint and the identification code of said vehicle wirelessly to said remote control center for log-in when the comparison matched, said processor means also being adapted to compare the current position information of said vehicle to the global position information of said at least one exit checkpoint and to control said wireless communication means to send an exit information representing a matched entrance checkpoint and the identification code of said vehicle wirelessly to said remote control center for log-out when the comparison matched.

Abstract
A vehicle management system is disclosed to have GPS coordinates of a plurality of checkpoints of entrance gateways and exit gateways of a freeway stored in the memory of a vehicle. When a driver drives in an entrance gateway (or out of an exit gateway) of the freeway and an on-vehicle processor of the vehicle compares the current GPS coordinates of the vehicle to be matched with GPS coordinates of one entrance (exit) checkpoint stored in the memory, the on-vehicle processor controls a wireless communication device to wirelessly send the code number of the corresponding entrance (exit) and the license number of the vehicle to a remote control center for log-in (log-out). According to the log-in/log-out data, the control center can control the traffic volume, electronic toll collection, stolen car tracking, or motorcade, . . . and etc. of the freeway.
