1. A device for determining distractions associated with corresponding geographic locations along vehicle driving routes, the device comprising:
- a vehicle interior data receiving module stored on a memory that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to receive vehicle interior data from at least one vehicle interior sensor, wherein the vehicle interior data is representative of distractions of at least one vehicle occupant;
a vehicle location data receiving module stored on the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to receive vehicle location data from at least one vehicle location sensor, wherein the vehicle location data is representative of a vehicle geographic location;
a vehicle driving route distraction data generation module stored on the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate vehicle driving route distraction data, using a covariance matrix having a probability distribution vector, based on the vehicle interior data and the vehicle location data, wherein the vehicle driving route distraction data is representative of at least one geographic location along at least one vehicle driving route that includes at least one distraction correlated with the at least one geographic location; and
a risk report generation module stored on the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate a risk report based on the vehicle driving route distraction data, wherein the risk report provides an indication representative of at least one geographic location correlated with a distraction.

8. A computer-implemented method for determining distractions associated with corresponding geographic locations along vehicle driving routes, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a processor or a computing device, vehicle interior data from at least one vehicle interior sensor, wherein the vehicle interior data is representative of distractions of at least one vehicle occupant; receiving, at the processor or the computing device, vehicle location data from at least one vehicle location sensor, wherein the vehicle location data is representative of a vehicle geographic location; generating, using the processor of the computing device, vehicle driving route distraction data, using a covariance matrix having a probability distribution vector, based on the vehicle interior data and the vehicle location data, wherein the vehicle driving route distraction data is representative of at least one geographic location along at least one vehicle driving route that includes at least one distraction correlated with the at least one geographic location; and generating a risk report based on the vehicle driving route distraction data, wherein the risk report provides an indication representative of at least one geographic location correlated with a distraction. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to determine distractions associated with corresponding geographic locations along vehicle driving routes, the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:
-
a vehicle interior data receiving module that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to receive vehicle interior data from at least one vehicle interior sensor, wherein the vehicle interior data is representative of distractions of at least one vehicle occupant; a vehicle location data receiving module that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to receive vehicle location data from at least one vehicle location sensor, wherein the vehicle location data is representative of a vehicle geographic location; a vehicle driving route distraction data generation module that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate vehicle driving route distraction data, using a covariance matrix having a probability distribution vector, based on the vehicle interior data and the vehicle location data, wherein the vehicle driving route distraction data is representative of vehicle driving routes that include distractions, wherein the vehicle driving route distraction data is representative of at least one geographic location along at least one vehicle driving route that includes at least one distraction correlated with the at least one geographic location; and a risk report generation module that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate a risk report based on the vehicle driving route distraction data, wherein the risk report provides an indication representative of at least one geographic location correlated with a distraction. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
