Abstract:
A tailgating detection and monitoring assembly includes a speed detector, a sensor, a visual warning module, and an imager, which are configured to couple to a rear window of a first vehicle and are operationally coupled to a control module. The speed detector is configured to measure a speed of the first vehicle. The sensor is configured to measure a distance between the first vehicle and a second vehicle that is behind the first vehicle. The control module is positioned to determine a separation between the first vehicle and the second vehicle and a speed of the second vehicle based on signals from the speed detector and the sensor to determine a tailgating event. The control module is positioned to command the visual warning module to display a notification to a driver of the second vehicle and to command the imager to capture an image of the tailgating event.

Claim (Index 1):
A tailgating detection and monitoring assembly comprising:\n a speed detector configured for coupling to a rear window of a first vehicle, said speed detector being configured for selectively measuring a speed of the first vehicle; a sensor configured for coupling to the rear window, said sensor being configured for selectively measuring a distance between the first vehicle and a second vehicle behind the first vehicle; a visual warning module configured for coupling to the rear window, said visual warning module being configured for selectively displaying a notification to a driver of the second vehicle; an imager configured for coupling to the rear window, said imager being configured for selectively capturing an image of the second vehicle; a control module operationally coupled to said speed detector, said visual warning module, said imager, and said sensor, said control module being configured for selectively actuating said speed detector, said visual warning module, said imager, and said sensor; and wherein said control module is positioned for determining a separation between the first vehicle and the second vehicle and a speed of the second vehicle based on signals from said speed detector and said sensor for determining a tailgating event, wherein said control module is positioned for selectively commanding said visual warning module for displaying the notification to the driver of the second vehicle, and wherein said control module is positioned for selectively commanding said imager for capturing the image of the tailgating event.
