An electronic device for a vehicle (V1, OV, 2012), the electronic device comprising: communication circuitry; an output interface; a memory; and at least one processor configured to: store, in the memory, accident modeling information including at least one of a history of accidents at a present location, and a first driver profile of a driver associated with the history of accidents at the present location, receive at least a portion of a second driver profile from at least one external vehicle proximate to the vehicle (V1, OV, 2012) via the communication circuitry, the second driver profile indicating driving characteristics of a driver of the at least one external vehicle, generate accident risk information based at least on the accident modeling information and the at least the portion of the second driver profile, and output the generated accident risk information through the output interface; characterised in that the accident modeling information includes an attribute of a first historical vehicle indicated in the accident history, and a locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history, and in that generating the accident risk information is further based on detecting that the at least one external vehicle has an attribute corresponding to the attribute of the first historical vehicle, and is disposed at a location position corresponding to the locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history. communication circuitry; an output interface; a memory; and at least one processor configured to: store, in the memory, accident modeling information including at least one of a history of accidents at a present location, and a first driver profile of a driver associated with the history of accidents at the present location, receive at least a portion of a second driver profile from at least one external vehicle proximate to the vehicle (V1, OV, 2012) via the communication circuitry, the second driver profile indicating driving characteristics of a driver of the at least one external vehicle, generate accident risk information based at least on the accident modeling information and the at least the portion of the second driver profile, and output the generated accident risk information through the output interface; characterised in that the accident modeling information includes an attribute of a first historical vehicle indicated in the accident history, and a locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history, and in that generating the accident risk information is further based on detecting that the at least one external vehicle has an attribute corresponding to the attribute of the first historical vehicle, and is disposed at a location position corresponding to the locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history. store, in the memory, accident modeling information including at least one of a history of accidents at a present location, and a first driver profile of a driver associated with the history of accidents at the present location, receive at least a portion of a second driver profile from at least one external vehicle proximate to the vehicle (V1, OV, 2012) via the communication circuitry, the second driver profile indicating driving characteristics of a driver of the at least one external vehicle, generate accident risk information based at least on the accident modeling information and the at least the portion of the second driver profile, and output the generated accident risk information through the output interface; characterised in that the accident modeling information includes an attribute of a first historical vehicle indicated in the accident history, and a locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history, and in that generating the accident risk information is further based on detecting that the at least one external vehicle has an attribute corresponding to the attribute of the first historical vehicle, and is disposed at a location position corresponding to the locational position of the first historical vehicle in the accident history.
