• convert the manual driving mode to the automatic driving mode when a predefined careless behavior occurs during the driver's manual driving;
• determine traffic congestion in real time based on a result analysis on an image photographed by an outdoor camera installed in the shared vehicle and a velocity of the shared vehicle at the corresponding time;
• calculate congestion time by comparing the traffic congestion with traffic information provided from a server;
• calculate a usage fare by a predefined calculation method based on the determined congestion time, an operation time period of the manual driving mode, and an operation time period of the automatic driving mode;
• when the shared vehicle arrives at a destination and calculation of the usage fare is completed, terminate driving of the shared vehicle;
• guide the driver to select a conversion to the manual driving mode by displaying a selection menu on a display when a time period for which the automatic driving mode is performed after a conversion from the manual driving mode to the automatic driving mode due to the driver's careless behavior exceeds a preset reference time period;
• convert the driving mode of the shared vehicle from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode when the driver selects the manual driving mode by selecting the selection menu on the display;
• and
• maintain the automatic driving mode when the cumulative number of times which the driver's careless behavior has occurred exceeds a preset reference number of times.
