Method and apparatus are disclosed for speed-dependent dark-mode for police vehicles. An example vehicle includes a speed sensor for measuring a vehicle speed and a cabin. The cabin includes interior lamps and a dark-mode switch for activating a dark mode. The example vehicle also includes a controller that, when the dark mode is active, is configured to deactivate the interior lamps when the vehicle speed is less than a threshold and activate the interior lamps at a predetermined lowest luminance level when the vehicle speed is equal to or greater than the threshold.

An information presentation apparatus is provided. A light emission device and a HCU are mounted on a vehicle as the information presentation apparatus. The light emission device is arranged on an instrument panel, and displays at least one light emission spot in a linear light emission area arranged to extend in a width direction of the vehicle. The HCU acquires monitoring information including at least position information of the risk target detected by the peripheral monitoring device, and calculates a risk level of the risk target, detected in a traveling direction of the vehicle, based on the monitoring information. When detecting a plurality of the risk targets, the HCU selects one of the risk targets having a highest risk level as a highest risk target, and displays the light emission spot, indicative of a direction of the highest risk target, in the linear light emission area.
