Selectively shared vehicle-based telematics

Abstract

Methods, computer-readable media, software, and apparatuses include activating a telematics system to collect telematics data associated with operation of a vehicle during a first window of time, receiving, by a computing device associated with the vehicle, telematics data from the telematics system during the first window of time, identifying one or more parameters associated with operation of the vehicle based on analyzing the telematics data, determining whether the one or more parameters meets a safe driving threshold, and upon determining that the one or more parameters meets the safe driving threshold, transmitting the telematics data to a third party server or device.

         8 . The vehicle on-board computer of  claim 1 , wherein the memory storing instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further causes the vehicle on-board computer to receive, at the heads-up display, one or more user inputs to operate one or more external vehicle systems or components. 
     
     
         9 . The vehicle on-board computer of  claim 8 , wherein the one or more external vehicle systems or components include windshield wipers or an exterior lighting system. 
     
     
         10 . The vehicle on-board computer of  claim 1 , wherein the memory storing instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the vehicle on-board computer to present a user an option to be notified before telematics data is shared. 
     
     
         11 . The vehicle on-board computer of  claim 10 , wherein the memory storing instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further causes the vehicle on-board computer to receive a selection to share telematics. 
     
     
         12 . The vehicle on-board computer of  claim 10 , wherein the memory storing instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further causes the vehicle on-board computer to present a first graphic indicating that telematics is being shared or present a second graphic indicating that telematics data is not being shared. 
     
     
         13 . A vehicle on-board computer comprising:
 a communication interface;   one or more processors;   a display screen; and   memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the vehicle on-board computer to:
