1. A system for wirelessly communicating with a processor of a vehicle, comprising:
- a converter connected to an on-board vehicle processor and a transceiver, configured to convert between serial data and parallel data, and including a wireless port configured to communicate with mobile devices in the vehicle, wherein the on-board vehicle processor is connected to a status module in a vehicle and configured to receive, from the status module, a value for a dynamic attribute of the vehicle;
an antenna;
the transceiver connected to the antenna and the converter and configured to wirelessly communicate with radio frequency (RF) readers; and
an RFID module connected to the antenna in parallel with the transceiver and configured to wirelessly communicate with the RFID readers.

Abstract
In some implementations, a method for wirelessly communicating includes receiving, from a transceiver, a message associated with a value for a dynamic attribute of the vehicle. The message associated with the value for the dynamic attribute is wirelessly transmitted by a converter to a wireless device. The converter is connected to the transceiver and an on-board vehicle processor.

15. A method for wirelessly communicating with a processor of a vehicle, comprising:
-
receiving, from an on-board vehicle processor connected to a status module and a transceiver, a value of a dynamic attribute of the vehicle and information associated with the value for the dynamic attribute from an external wireless device; storing the value and the information; receiving, from an RF reader, a request associated with the value for the dynamic attribute of the vehicle; converting from parallel data to serial data prior to wirelessly transmitting the value for the dynamic attribute; wirelessly transmitting, to the RF reader, by the transceiver in the vehicle, a response identifying the value for the dynamic attribute and the associated information; and wirelessly communicating, by an RFID module in the vehicle, with the RFID reader. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A method, comprising:
-
wirelessly receiving one or more driving rules associated with a current location; transmitting a request for one or more values of dynamic attributes and associated information to a vehicle; receiving a response identifying the one or more values and the associated information; determining the one or more values and the associated information violate the one or more driving rules; and in response to the determining, transmitting a notification of the violation. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29)
