Abstract

A method, implemented in an electronic processing system that includes a memory and one or more processors, includes receiving, at the electronic processing system, sensor data representing information collected by a sensor (i) located on or in a first vehicle and (ii) configured to sense an environment external to the first vehicle, and storing the received sensor data in the memory. The method also includes processing the stored sensor data to determine conditions in which the second vehicle was driven, driving habits of a driver of the second vehicle, and an identifying characteristic of the second vehicle. The method further includes identifying the driver of the second vehicle using the identifying characteristic, and determining a risk level for the driver of the second vehicle using the determined conditions and driving habits.
