Traffic based driving analysis

A driving analysis system comprising a first vehicle on-board data recording system, a second vehicle on-board data recording system, and a driving analysis server:

• wherein the first vehicle on-board data recording system comprises:
• one or more vehicle operation sensors or cameras configured to record vehicle operation data at the first vehicle;
• and
• one or more telematics devices configured to transmit the vehicle operation data from the first vehicle to the driving analysis server;
• wherein the second vehicle on-board data recording system comprises:
• one or more vehicle operation sensors or cameras configured to record vehicle operation data at the second vehicle;
• and
• one or more telematics devices configured to transmit the vehicle operation data from the second vehicle to the driving analysis server;
• wherein the driving analysis server comprises a processor and a memory unit storing computer-executable instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the driving analysis server to:
• receive first vehicle driving data from the first vehicle on-board data recording system, the first vehicle driving data associated with a first vehicle location and a first vehicle time;
• analyze the received first vehicle driving data to determine a first driving behavior of a first driver of the first vehicle;
• receive second vehicle driving data from the second vehicle on-board data recording system, the second vehicle driving data associated with a second vehicle location at or near the first vehicle location at or near the first vehicle time;
• compare the first vehicle driving data to the second vehicle driving data to determine whether the first driving behavior is present in the second vehicle driving data;
• responsive to determining that the first driving behavior is not present in the second vehicle driving data, adjusting a driver score of the first driver of the first vehicle;
• and
• responsive to determining that the first driving behavior is present in the second vehicle driving data, maintaining the driver score of the first driver of the first vehicle.

A driving analysis system comprising:

• a first vehicle on-board data recording system, one or more other vehicle on-board data recording systems, one or more vehicle operation computer systems, one or more traffic data storage systems, and a driving analysis server,
• wherein the first vehicle on-board data recording system comprises:
• one or more vehicle operation sensors or cameras configured to record vehicle operation data at the first vehicle;
• and
• one or more telematics devices configured to transmit the vehicle operation data from the first vehicle to a vehicle operation computer system,
• wherein each of the one or more other vehicle on-board data recording systems comprises:
• one or more vehicle operation sensors or cameras configured to record vehicle operation data at the vehicle;
• and
• one or more telematics devices configured to transmit the vehicle operation data from the vehicle to a vehicle operation computer system,
• wherein each of the one or more vehicle operation computer systems comprises a processor and a memory unit storing computer-executable instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the vehicle operation computer system to:
• receive and store vehicle operation data from the at least one telematics device of the first vehicle on-board data recording system or the other vehicle on-board data recording systems;
• and
• transmit the vehicle operation data to the driving analysis server,
• wherein each of the one or more traffic data storage systems comprises a processor and a memory unit storing computer-executable instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the traffic data storage system to:
• receive and store traffic data regarding a plurality of driving behaviors, a plurality of geographic locations associated with said driving behaviors, and a plurality of time periods associated with said driving behaviors;
• and
• transmit the traffic data regarding a plurality of driving behaviors to the driving analysis server,
• wherein the driving analysis server comprises a processor and a memory unit storing computer-executable instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the driving analysis server to:
• receive first vehicle driving data from one or more of the vehicle operation computer systems, the first vehicle driving data associated with a first vehicle location and a first vehicle time;
• analyze the received first vehicle driving data to determine a first driving behavior of a first driver of the first vehicle;
• receive other vehicle driving data from at least one of the vehicle operation computer systems or the traffic data storage systems, the other vehicle driving data associated with one or more other vehicle locations at or near the first vehicle location at or near the first vehicle time;
• compare the first vehicle driving data to the other vehicle driving data to determine whether the first driving behavior is present in the second vehicle driving data;
• responsive to determining that the first driving behavior is not present in the other vehicle driving data, adjusting a driver score of the first driver of the first vehicle;
• and
• responsive to determining that the first driving behavior is present in the other vehicle driving data, maintaining the driver score of the first driver of the first vehicle.
