Abstract

A vehicle with an automatic report function includes a first communication apparatus and a controller. The first communication apparatus is configured to transmit emergency information at an emergency of the vehicle to a server apparatus for requesting emergency dispatch. The controller is configured to cause the first communication apparatus to automatically transmit the emergency information at the emergency of the vehicle to the server apparatus. At the transmission of the emergency information, the controller causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information of a mobile terminal of an occupant of the vehicle.

Claims (25)

1. A vehicle with an automatic report function, the vehicle comprising:

a first communication apparatus configured to transmit emergency information at an emergency of the vehicle to a server apparatus for requesting emergency dispatch; and

a controller configured to cause the first communication apparatus to automatically transmit the emergency information at the emergency of the vehicle to the server apparatus,

wherein, at the transmission of the emergency information, the controller causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information of a mobile terminal of an occupant of the vehicle,

wherein, at the transmission of the emergency information, the controller causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information pieces of respective mobile terminals of respective occupants of the vehicle, and

wherein, in a case where the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants in the vehicle are registered, the controller

estimates an order of an injury possibility of the respective occupants, and

sequentially communicates with the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants in the determined order of the injury possibility.

2. The vehicle with an automatic report function according to claim 1 , the vehicle further comprising:

a second communication apparatus provided in the vehicle independently of the first communication apparatus, the second communication apparatus being configured to authenticate and communicate with a mobile terminal that is present in the vehicle,

wherein the controller causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information of the mobile terminal that is authenticated by the second communication apparatus.

3. The vehicle with an automatic report function according to claim 2 , wherein the controller

checks whether the mobile terminal the authentication information of which is registered in the second communication apparatus is capable of communicating with the second communication apparatus after the emergency of the vehicle has occurred, and

causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information of the mobile terminal checked to be capable of communicating with the second communication apparatus.

4. The vehicle with an automatic report function according to claim 2 ,

wherein the controller sequentially communicates with the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants of the vehicle and causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, results of answers to the communication.

5. The vehicle with an automatic report function according to claim 3 ,

wherein the controller sequentially communicates with the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants of the vehicle and causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, results of answers to the communication.

6. A vehicle with an automatic report function, the vehicle comprising:

a first communication apparatus configured to transmit emergency information at an emergency of the vehicle to a server apparatus for requesting emergency dispatch; and

circuitry configured to cause the first communication apparatus to automatically transmit the emergency information at the emergency of the vehicle to the server apparatus, the emergency information comprising contact information of a mobile terminal of an occupant of the vehicle,

wherein, at the transmission of the emergency information, the circuitry causes the first communication apparatus to transmit, to the server apparatus, contact information pieces of respective mobile terminals of respective occupants of the vehicle, and

wherein, in a case where the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants in the vehicle are registered, the circuitry

estimates an order of an injury possibility of the respective occupants, and

sequentially communicates with the respective mobile terminals of the respective occupants in the determined order of the injury possibility.
