Inward/outward vehicle monitoring for remote reporting and in-cab warning enhancements

A method comprising:

• capturing, by at least one processor of a computing device with an outward facing camera on or in a vehicle, visual data outside of the vehicle;
• detecting, by the at least one processor based on the visual data, a red light turned to a green light for the vehicle, wherein detecting that a driver of the vehicle is not looking at the green light comprises detecting, using a microphone, sound inside of the vehicle;
• and
• responsive to detecting, by the at least one processor, that the driver of the vehicle is not looking at the green light, generating, by the at least one processor, an alert for a driver of the vehicle.

A method comprising:

• capturing, by at least one processor of a computing device with an outward facing camera on or in a vehicle, visual data outside of the vehicle;
• detecting, by the at least one processor based on the visual data, a traffic light corresponding to a lane of the vehicle;
• detecting, by the at least one processor based on the visual data, a red light turned to a green light for the traffic light corresponding to the lane of the vehicle;
• generating, by the at least one processor, an alert for a driver of the vehicle when the traffic light corresponding to the lane of the vehicle turned to the green light;
• detecting, by the at least one processor based on the visual data, a second traffic light corresponding to an adjacent lane of the vehicle;
• detecting, by the at least one processor based on the visual data, a second red light turned to a second green light for the second traffic light corresponding to the adjacent lane;
• and
• suppressing, by the at least one processor, the alert for the driver of the vehicle when the second traffic light corresponding to the adjacent lane of the vehicle turned to the green light.

• and
• responsive to detecting, by the at least one processor, a sound of a siren after detecting the red light turned to the green light, suppressing, by the at least one processor, the alert to the driver of the vehicle.
