Abstract: A center high mounted stop light assembly for use in a vehicle includes a stop light housing movable in a passage located center high on a rear end of the vehicle between a first closed position and a second extended position in which utility lights coupled to the stop light housing are deployable and operable to illuminate an area near the rear end of the vehicle. A position sensor detects and signals the position of the stop light housing within the passage. The stop light housing may be manually operated between the open and closed position or may use an automated device for push button operation including of the utility lights.

Abstract: A computer implemented method includes receiving route data from an in-vehicle process. The method further includes setting one or more geo-fences corresponding to known conditions along a route defined by the route data. The method additionally includes sending the geo-fences to the in-vehicle process for monitoring.
