• a transceiver;
• a processor;
• and
• a memory configured to store at least one instruction executed by the processor,
• wherein the processor is configured to:
• control the transceiver to receive, from an emergency vehicle, a current location and a destination of the emergency vehicle, and to receive, from one or more emergency-vehicle recognition apparatuses surrounding the emergency vehicle, one or more road conditions;
• predict an emergency route that is a fastest route for the emergency vehicle to the destination based on the current location, the destination, and the one or more road conditions;
• and
• control the transceiver to transmit the emergency route to the emergency vehicle and the one or more emergency-vehicle recognition apparatuses.

• recognizing an approach of the emergency vehicle and a road condition by using at least one sensor;
• determining a first avoidance location that is an avoidance location for a first car to move away from the emergency vehicle based on the road condition;
• providing a first avoidance route that is a route for the first car to move from a current location to the first avoidance location;
• and
• projecting, by using at least one projection device, at least one of a first symbol indicating the approach of the emergency vehicle or the first avoidance route.
