Claim 0:
1. A travel assistance system including a vehicle and
a server which is provided outside the vehicle, comprising:
a camera configured to recognize an obstruction factor for traveling of the vehicle, using captured data;
a first processor of the server configured to obtain information of an approaching vehicle that approaches the obstruction factor;
wherein the first processor is configured to generate warning information, based on information of the obstruction factor, corresponding to information of a type of the approaching vehicle obtained by the first processor, and the first processor is configured to transmit the warning information to the approaching vehicle;
a second processor of the approaching vehicle configured to give notification to an occupant of the approaching vehicle and/or control traveling of the approaching vehicle based on the warning information,
wherein the approaching vehicle includes a first approaching vehicle and a second approaching vehicle that is located behind the first approaching vehicle; and
the first processor of the server is further configured to predict an avoidance course of the first approaching vehicle with respect to a first obstruction factor based on information of a type of the first approaching vehicle, the first processor is configured to generate first warning information and transmit the generated first warning information to the first approaching vehicle, and the first processor is further configured to generate second warning information including the first obstruction factor, the predicted avoidance course with respect to the first obstruction factor of the first approaching vehicle as a second obstruction factor, and a message indicating that the first approaching vehicle may avoid the first obstruction factor, and the first processor is further configured to transmit the generated second warning information to the second approaching vehicle,
in a case where the second processor of the second approaching vehicle gives notification to the occupant of the second approaching vehicle, the second processor of the second approaching vehicle displays, based on the transmitted second warning information, an image showing a positional relationship between the first obstruction factor and the first approaching vehicle, the predicted avoidance course of the first approaching vehicle with respect to the first obstruction factor, and the message.
