SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING A DRIVING SPEED OF A VEHICLE AND A METHOD THEREOF
A vehicle control system may include a controller that obtains route information based on a driving route and a location of a vehicle, searches for an uneven road surface on the driving route based on the route information, calculates an impulse based on vehicle information and shape information about the found uneven road surface when the uneven road surface is found, and sets a target speed based on the calculated impulse and user data.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VISUALIZING PREDICTED DRIVING RISK
Systems and methods of visualizing predicted driving risk are provided herein. Vehicle sensor data associated with a vehicle operator may be analyzed. Based on the analysis of the vehicle sensor data, one or more vehicle operation risks associated with the vehicle operator may be predicted. Each vehicle operation risk may be associated with a portion of a vehicle associated with the vehicle operator. Additionally, each vehicle operation risk may be assigned a priority level, e.g., based on predicted likelihood of occurrence, predicted danger of the vehicle operator, predicted damage to the vehicle, etc. A display overview of the vehicle may be presented to the vehicle operator. In the display overview of the vehicle portions of the vehicle associated with each of the predicted vehicle operation risks may be highlighted. The portions may be highlighted differently (using different colors, heavier/lighter shading, etc.) based on the priority level of their associated risks.
