Abstract

A computing device described may determine a current speed of the computing device, and, responsive to determining that the current speed of the computing device satisfies a threshold speed, determine whether a current geographic location of the computing device is within with an uncommon stopping area, the uncommon stopping area being a geographic area in which less than a threshold number of other computing devices have been determined to have previously stopped. The computing device may also, responsive to determining that the current geographic location of the computing device is within the uncommon stopping area and responsive to determining that assistance-type information is relevant to the user of the computing device, determine, based on the current geographic location, assistance information relevant to the current geographic location, and output, for display, the assistance information.
