Enhanced Driver and Vehicle Performance and Analysis
First Claim
1. A method of operating a driver analysis system, the method comprising:
- receiving vehicle operation data corresponding to operation of one or more vehicles operated by one or more drivers by the driver analysis system;
receiving traffic light location information;
generating a driving report which identifies the driving performance of a target driver based at least in part on the vehicle operation data and the traffic light location information; and
transferring the driving report to a target device for viewing by one or more entities.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and software are disclosed for operating a driver analysis system, including receiving vehicle operation data corresponding to operation of vehicles by drivers, identifying a peer group associated with a target driver, processing at least a portion of the vehicle operation data to determine driving performance of the target driver relative to driving performance of the peer group, generating a driving report which identifies the driving performance of the target driver, and transferring the driving report to a target device for viewing by an entity, where the driving report may exclude some information based on the location of traffic lights.

13. A driver analysis system comprising:
-
a communication interface configured to receive vehicle operation data, from a monitoring system adjacent one or more vehicles, corresponding to operation of the one or more of vehicles operated by one or more drivers; a processing system configured to identify from one or more drivers a peer group associated with a target driver, process at least a portion of the vehicle operation data to determine driving performance of the target driver relative to driving performance of the peer group, and generate a driving score which generally identifies the driving performance of the target driver; wherein at least a portion of the vehicle operation data is disregarded based at least in part on traffic light location information. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A driver analysis network, comprising:
-
a plurality of monitoring systems located on board a plurality of vehicles operated by a plurality of drivers wherein the plurality of monitoring systems is configured to transmit vehicle operation data corresponding to operation of the plurality of vehicles; a server configured to receive the vehicle operation data at a communication interface, identify from the plurality of drivers a peer group associated with a target driver, process at least a portion of the vehicle operation data to determine driving performance of the target driver relative to driving performance of the peer group, generate a driving report which identifies the driving performance of the target driver, and transmit the driving report at the communication interface; a target device configured to receive the driving report and display the driving report for viewing by the target driver or another entity, wherein the driving report comprises an indication of hard braking events, and wherein one or more of the hard braking events is disregarded if it is determined it occurred near a traffic signal. - View Dependent Claims (20)
