Abstract
A vehicle includes a chassis, a driveline coupled to the chassis, and a control system. The control system is configured to monitor a condition of at least one of the vehicle, an area around the vehicle, or an operator of the vehicle; and control operation of the driveline based on the condition. Controlling the operation of the driveline includes at least one of limiting a speed at which the driveline drives the vehicle or shutting down the driveline and isolating a component of the driveline.

A vehicle comprising:
- a chassis;
- a driveline coupled to the chassis;
- a light system;
- a siren;
- and
- a control system configured to:
- monitor for a plurality conditions including two or more of an accident condition of the vehicle, an overturn condition of the vehicle, a seatbelt buckle condition of an operator of the vehicle, an attentiveness condition of the operator, a tire chains condition of the vehicle, a hazard lights condition of the vehicle, an adverse weather condition around the vehicle, an approaching response vehicle condition proximate the vehicle, a hazard condition ahead of the vehicle, an upcoming turn condition ahead of the vehicle, a loaded condition of the vehicle, a response condition of the vehicle, a geofence condition around the vehicle, a service condition of the vehicle, or a pre-operation check condition of the vehicle;
- control operation of the driveline based on the plurality of conditions by (i) selectively limiting a speed at which the driveline drives the vehicle in response to a first condition of the plurality of conditions being present and (ii) selectively shutting down the driveline and isolating a component of the driveline in response to a second condition of the plurality of conditions being present;
- monitor a location of the vehicle to identify whether the vehicle is approaching an intersection or a high-risk area;
- and
- control operation of the siren and the light system differently as the vehicle at least one of approaches or drives through the intersection or the high-risk area relative to another location that is not the intersection or the high-risk area.
