Abstract: A driving teaching device is provided. The driving teaching device for a vehicle includes a visual attraction portion and a confirmation determination portion. The visual attraction portion guides, as an attractive display, a visual line of a driver to a confirmation object to which a safety confirmation is to be executed by the driver. The confirmation determination portion determines whether the driver executes the safety confirmation to the confirmation object. The driving teaching device further includes a reaction determination portion and a feedback portion. The reaction determination portion determines a reaction degree of the driver to the attractive display. The feedback portion provides information based on the reaction degree determined by the reaction determination portion when the confirmation determination portion determines that the driver executes the safety confirmation to the confirmation object.

Abstract: A vehicle alarming system is provided to include (i) an inter-vehicle distance detector and (ii) an alarm. The inter-vehicle distance detector is configured to detect an inter-vehicle distance between a host vehicle and a vehicle ahead of the host vehicle. The alarm is configured to issue an alarm signal to a manipulation applied to an in-vehicle device in response to that a driving load including the inter-vehicle distance detected by the inter-vehicle distance detector satisfies an alarming condition of enabling the alarm. An execution state of a cruise control function is excluded from the alarming condition of enabling the alarm. The alarm is enabled in response to determining an override state in which acceleration or deceleration is manipulated forcedly by a driver of the host vehicle under the execution of the cruise control function.

Abstract: A vehicle driver state determination apparatus in a vehicle is provided as follows. A specific notification is issued from a driving assistance apparatus in response to an occurrence of a specific event; the specific notification urges the driver to perform a predetermined driving operation. A reaction time is measured from when the specific notification is issued to when the predetermined driving operation is performed by the driver, to evaluate a state relating to a driving ability of the driver.

Abstract: A vehicle notification system may include a mobile communication terminal and a vehicle communication terminal. The mobile communication terminal and the vehicle communication terminal may perform a wireless communication with one another. The vehicle notification system may detect a terminal position. The vehicle notification system may detect speed of the mobile communication terminal. The vehicle notification system may detect vertical acceleration of the mobile communication terminal. The vehicle notification system may determine whether an action state of the person possessing the mobile communication terminal is walking, running, riding a bicycle, or riding on a vehicle using the speed and the vertical acceleration. The vehicle notification system may predict a risk degree of accident using the terminal position, a determination result of the action state, and the vehicle position.
