  • Vehicle notification system
    Patent number: 6965321
    Abstract: A vehicle notification system includes a control panel removably positionable inside a vehicle and including a transceiving mechanism for identifying imminent environmental conditions. The system further includes a plurality of transceivers disposed at predetermined locations exterior of a vehicle housing the control panel. The plurality of transceivers selectively send a plurality of input signals to the transceiving mechanism and for identifying an imminent environmental condition, respectively. The transceiving mechanism includes a display panel housed by the control panel for providing visual information regarding an imminent environmental condition. The transceiving mechanism may further include an input mechanism connected to the control panel for receiving driver-identification information so that one of the plurality of transceivers can identify a driver of a vehicle.
