Re-routing context determination

A rerouting system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor to store instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising
• tracking movement of the subject vehicle as the subject vehicle is following a planned route;
• determining whether a deviation of the subject vehicle from the planned route indicates a user-initiated re-routing of the subject vehicle from the planned route;
• gathering data from a plurality of sources indicating a route condition leading to the user-initiated re-routing;
• analyzing the gathered data to determine a reason for the user-initiated re-routing;
• and
• based on the reason, determining whether to reroute other vehicles to avoid the reason for the user-initiated re-routing.

A rerouting system to determine a rerouting reason for a subject vehicle, comprising:

• a monitoring vehicle tracking movement of the subject vehicle as the subject vehicle is following a route;
• the monitoring vehicle determining whether a change in routing indicates a user-initiated re-routing of the subject vehicle from a planned route;
• a rerouting server gathering data from a plurality of sources indicating a route condition leading to the user-initiated re-routing;
• analyzing the gathered data to determine a reason for the user-initiated re-routing;
• and
• based on the reason, determining whether to reroute other vehicles to avoid the reason for the user-initiated re-routing.

A method for rerouting determination among a plurality of vehicles in communication with one another, comprising:

• a first vehicle of the plurality of vehicles sending a notification to at least one of the other vehicles of the plurality of the vehicles that the first vehicle is deviating from a planned route;
• the other vehicles of the plurality of vehicles gathering data from a plurality of sources indicating a route condition, and analyzing the gathered data to determine a reason for the first vehicle is deviating from the planned route;
• and
• the other vehicles, based on the reason, determining whether to reroute themselves to avoid the reason for the rerouting.

A system for rerouting determination among a plurality of vehicles in communication with one another, comprising:

• the plurality of vehicles receiving a notification from a subject vehicle indicating that the subject vehicle is deviating from a planned route;
• the plurality of vehicles gathering data from a plurality of sources indicating a route condition, and analyzing the gathered data to determine a reason the subject vehicle is deviating from the planned route;
• and
• the other vehicles, based on the reason, determining whether to reroute themselves to avoid the reason for the rerouting.
