Road frustration index risk mapping and mitigation
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a vehicle telematics system comprising a sensor sensing a speed of a vehicle;
a computing device comprising;
a processor; and
a non-transitory memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to;
receive, from the vehicle telematics system, speed information representative of a current vehicle speed;
receive, from a mobile location detection unit, information identifying a road class associated with each of a plurality of road segments upon which the vehicle is travelling;
calculate, in near real-time and based on the speed information and the road class, a first frustration level value associated with a driver of the vehicle;
identify, based on whether the first frustration level value meets a criterion, an alternate route segment having second frustration level value predicted to be less than the first frustration level value; and
output, on a display, a visual representation of a first route segment associated with the first frustration level value and the alternate route segment associated with the second frustration level value.

Abstract
A system for determining a road frustration index value may include a vehicle and/or a computing device associated with a user travelling within the vehicle. A telematics system associated with the vehicle may include a sensor to sense a speed of the vehicle. The computing device may receive, from the vehicle telematics device, speed information representative of a current vehicle speed and may receive, from a mobile location detection unit, information identifying a road class associated with each of a plurality of road segments of a route. The computing device may then calculate, in near real-time and based on the speed information and the road class, a first frustration level value associated with the driver of the vehicle and identify, based on whether the first frustration level value meets a criterion, an alternate route segment having second frustration level value predicted to be less than the first frustration level value.
