Method and apparatus for monitoring driving behavior of a driver of a vehicle

A management server device located in the cloud for automatically monitoring driving behavior of a driver of a vehicle, the management server device comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable storage medium to store instructions;
• and
• a processor coupled with the non-transitory computer readable storage medium to process the stored instructions to:
• receive information pertaining to one or more loads to be transported by vehicles,
• determine one or more first driving behavior parameter thresholds based at least in part on a first fragility indicator of a load to be transported by the vehicle during a first portion of a route, wherein the first fragility indicator is determined at least in part based on the information pertaining to the one or more loads,
• determine data indicative of a first state of the vehicle;
• determine based on the data indicative of the first state of the vehicle that the vehicle is to start the first portion of the route;
• and
• responsive to determining that the vehicle is to start the first portion of the route, cause an electronic device to monitor the driving behavior of the driver of the vehicle during the first portion of the route based on the one or more first driving behavior parameter thresholds.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium that provides instructions, which when executed by a processor of a management server device located in the cloud, cause said processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving information pertaining to one or more loads to be transported by vehicles;
• determining one or more first driving behavior parameter thresholds based at least in part on a first fragility indicator of a load to be transported by a vehicle during a first portion of a route, wherein the first fragility indicator is determined at least in part based on the information pertaining to the one or more loads;
• determining data indicative of a first state of the vehicle;
• determining based on the data indicative of the first state of the vehicle that the vehicle is to start the first portion of the route;
• and
• responsive to determining that the vehicle is to start the first portion of the route, causing an electronic device to monitor the driving behavior of a driver of the vehicle during the first portion of the route based on the one or more first driving behavior parameter thresholds.
