1. A method of communication, comprising:
- receiving a communication having a message class at a mobile communication device carried by a vehicle;
obtaining the message class of the received communication at the mobile communication device;
sensing vibrations resulting from motion of the vehicle;
determining, using a processor, a state of motion of the vehicle at the mobile communication device based on the sensed vibrations upon receiving the communication;
comparing the present state of motion to a model indicative of a driving scenario;
determining a context of the state of the motion based on the comparison; and
using the message class, the determined state of motion, and the determined context of the state of motion to select an action to relay the communication to a driver of the vehicle.

Abstract
A mobile communication device and method of communication is disclosed. A communication signal having a message class is received at the mobile communication device conveyed by a vehicle. A message class of the received communication at the mobile communication device is obtained. A station of motion of the vehicle is determined at the mobile communication device. The message class and the determined state of motion is used to select an action to relay the communication to a driver of the vehicle.

8. A mobile communication device for use in a vehicle, comprising:
-
a module configured to receive a communication from a network; a motion sensor configured to sense vibrations resulting from motion of the vehicle; and a processor configured to; determine a state of motion of the vehicle based on the sensed vibrations upon receiving the communication, obtain a message class of the communication, compare the state of motion to a model indicative of a driving scenario, determine a context of the state of the motion based on the comparison, and select an action to relay the communication to a user of the mobile communication device from the determined state of motion, the obtained message class, and the determined context of the state of motion. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method of providing a message to a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
-
receiving the message at a mobile communication device carried by the vehicle, wherein the message includes a message class; obtaining the message class of the received message; determining a state of motion of the vehicle at the mobile communication device using a motion sensor upon receiving the message, wherein the motion sensor is configured to sense vibrations resulting from motion of the vehicle; comparing the determined state of motion to a model indicative of the behavior of a driving scenario; determining a context of the state of the motion based on the comparison; and using a processor to select an action for providing the message to the driver based on the determined state of motion of the vehicle, the determined context of the state of motion, and the obtained message class. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
