Abstract

The invention obtains a processing unit and a processing method capable of improving a rider's safety. The invention also obtains an inter-vehicular distance warning system that includes the processing unit. The invention further obtains a motorcycle that includes the inter-vehicular distance warning system. A processing unit (20) includes: an acquisition section (21) that acquires environment information corresponding to output of an environment detector (11); a determination section (22) that determines sufficiency or insufficiency of an inter-vehicular distance on the basis of the environment information; and a control section (23) that makes a warning device (30) output a warning in the case where the determination section (22) determines that the inter-vehicular distance is insufficient. During travel of the motorcycle, the acquisition section (21) acquires posture information related to a bank angle of the motorcycle, and the control section (23) changes the warning output by the warning device (30) in accordance with the posture information.
