The method may comprise: detecting an event which has occurred to a user of the user terminal; and transmitting a message for requesting assistance associated with the safety of the user. In addition, the message for requesting the assistance may include information regarding the event which has occurred to the user and information regarding a duration time of the assistance. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of communicating with a user equipment by a vehicle in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a first message including information requesting pairing with the user equipment; transmitting a second message to the paired user equipment based on that an assistance for the user equipment is available; receiving a third message including information related to an event occurring in a user of the user equipment; providing a safety assistance service based on the information related to the event, wherein the safety assistance service is provided using an external lamp of the vehicle, receiving a fourth message requesting termination of the safety assistance service based on the event occurring in the user of the user equipment being terminated from the user equipment; and releasing the pairing with the user equipment. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the third message further includes information on a duration time of the safety assistance service, further comprising: initiating driving of the external lamp in a special warning pattern based on the third message being received; and terminating the driving of the external lamp based on a counter included information on a duration time being expired. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: relaying the first message, the third message and the fourth message to surrounding vehicle. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the fourth message is received based on the event occurring in the user of the user equipment being terminated. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: initiating driving of the external lamp in a special warning pattern based on the third message being received; and terminating the driving of the external lamp based on the fourth message being received. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the external lamp includes at least one of headlight, turn signal lamp, alarm light or hazard light. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the safety assistance service includes i) controlling speed of the vehicle through a drive control device or ii) generating warning to outside of the vehicle through an external output device. ### Claim 8 A method of communicating with a vehicle by a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: transmitting a first message including information requesting pairing with the vehicle; receiving one or more second messages informing that a safety assistance service is available from one or more surrounding vehicles; selecting a vehicle to be provided with the safety assistance based on the a plurality of the second messages being received; performing the pairing with the selected vehicle; and transmitting a third message including information related to an event occurring in a user of the user equipment to the paired vehicle, wherein the safety assistance service is provided using an external lamp of the paired vehicle based on the information related to the event, transmitting a fourth message requesting termination of the safety assistance service based on the event occurring in the user of the user equipment being terminated to the paired vehicle, and releasing the pairing with the paired vehicle. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the user equipment transmits the first message based on the event occurring in the user being a non-emergency event, wherein the user equipment performs an alarm operation without performing the pairing based on the event occurring in the user being an emergency event. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the first message, the third message and the fourth message is relayed to surrounding vehicle of the paired vehicle. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the external lamp includes at least one of headlight, turn signal lamp, alarm light or hazard light. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the safety assistance service includes i) controlling speed of the paired vehicle through a drive control device of the paired vehicle or ii) generating warning to outside of the paired vehicle through an external output device of the paired vehicle. ### Claim 13 A vehicle communicating with a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the vehicle comprising: a communication device; and a processor configured to receive a first message including information requesting pairing with the user equipment, transmit a second message to the paired user equipment based on that an assistance for the user equipment is available, receive a third message including information related to an event occurring in a user of the user equipment; and provide a safety assistance service based on the information related to the event, wherein the safety assistance service is provided using an external lamp of the vehicle, receiving a fourth message requesting termination of the safety assistance service based on the event occurring in the user of the user equipment being terminated from the user equipment; and releasing the pairing with the user equipment.
