- and
- a processor,
- wherein the processor is configured to lock an engine start of a target vehicle or release a lock of the engine start of the target vehicle in accordance with a connection status of the communication unit.
1 more element
An information processing system comprising:
- multiple vehicles each including a first communication unit configured to communicate with an outside and a first processor configured to lock an engine start or release a lock of the engine start;
- and
- an information processing device including a second communication unit configured to communicate with the vehicles and a second processor,
- wherein the second processor is configured to
