DRIVING EVENT ASSESSMENT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An apparatus for generating a driver performance assessment, comprising:
- a processor;
a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory includes instructions executable by the processor to;
receive, at a network entity, a vehicle performance parameter from an electronic logging device (ELD) associated with a vehicle, wherein the vehicle performance parameter identifies a driving event detected by the ELD;
receive, at the network entity, image data captured by an image processing device on the vehicle that corresponds to the driving event;
determine, at the network entity, whether the driving event was triggered in response to external environmental conditions; and
generate the driver performance assessment based on whether the driving event was triggered in response to the external environmental conditions.

Abstract
The described features of the present disclosure generally relate to one or more improved systems for analyzing driver performance with respect to a driving event that is correlated with corresponding image or video data (e.g., video captured by cameras mounted around the truck). Specifically, before the driving event is recorded against the driver'"'"'s performance assessment, the techniques of the present disclosure analyze the image or video data corresponding to external environmental conditions around the vehicle and corresponding to the driving event (e.g., abrupt application of brakes) in order to determine whether the driver was at fault or if the driver actions were in response to conditions out of the control of the driver.
