An on-vehicle system for assessing an operator's efficiency of a vehicle, include sensors, an audiovisual display device, a processor and a data storage. The sensors measure or detect conditions of components of the vehicle, and convert the detected conditions into analog or digital information. The data storage stores program instructions, the analog or digital information from the sensors, and other data. The program instructions, when executed by the processor, control the on-vehicle system to determine a state of the vehicle within a vehicle's environment based on the analog or digital information from the sensors, determine whether one or more of a predetermined set of behaviors has occurred based on the determined state of a vehicle, assess performance of the determined one or more of the predetermined set of behaviors, and present the operator, via the audiovisual display device, a feedback based on the assessment.

Methods and systems are described for generating a vehicle-to-vehicle traffic alert. Various aspects may include detecting that an abnormal traffic condition exists in an operating environment of a vehicle and generating a related electronic message. The electronic message may be transmitted via the vehicle's transceiver using a wireless communication to a nearby vehicle to alert the nearby vehicle of the abnormal traffic condition and to allow the nearby vehicle to avoid the abnormal traffic condition.

A method and a device to teach a vehicle user about features and functions of the vehicle using an electronic device located in the vehicle. The user is offered, by the electronic device, a catalogue of guided driving tutorials. Each of the guided driving tutorials includes a sequence of instructions to the user to pay attention to certain vehicle responses and/or to perform certain operating actions or driving maneuvers, and to pay attention to the corresponding response made by the vehicle or by vehicle components.

A driver assessment system includes at least one vehicle sensor on a vehicle gathering vehicle dynamics information. At least one occupant sensor gathers driver information. The at least one occupant sensor may be a wearable device or subdermal device on the driver. At least one computer receives the vehicle dynamics information and the driver information to determine a driver readiness.

An information presentation apparatus includes: a status estimation unit that identifies one or more tasks from input information which has been input, and task information indicative of one or more tasks indicating a status; a load estimation unit that identifies one or more subtasks based on each of the identified tasks and subtask information indicative of one or more subtracts, each indicating a work element possibly executed by an operator, in the status of each task, and acquires a required load amount, which is a mental load on each of the one or more subtasks, based on the identified subtask and required subtask amount information indicative of the required load amount; a margin estimation unit that acquires a margin based on the acquired required load amount; and a presented information selection unit that selects information to be presented based on the margin.

An education and learning system that allows a user to memorize the rules of the road in a fun and engaging manner that allows repetitive testing while maintaining the excitement of learning. A person can practice by themselves or with a group of friends and multiply the fun. The system accommodates a variety of learning styles so that auditory, visual and tactile learners remain engaged during the learning process.
