Abstract: A vehicle dispatch method is a method for dispatching vehicles by a server, each of the vehicles being configured to perform automated driving. The vehicle dispatch method includes first to fifth steps. The first step is a step of dispatching, the vehicle to a current location of a user. The second step is a step of dispatching, the vehicle with no driver on board to a destination of the user using positional information of the destination. The third step is a step of, when the vehicle arrives at the destination, parking the vehicle at a parking space. The fourth step is a step of, when it is detected that the vehicle with the user on board approaches the parking space, moving the vehicle from the parking space. The fifth step is a step of parking the vehicle at the parking space where the vehicle has been parked.

Abstract: An information processing device has an obtaining unit, a controller, and a giving unit. The obtaining unit can obtain vehicle information. The controller creates first warning information when the passability of a road in the vehicle information indicates non-passable. The controller creates recovery information when the passability of the road at the same position in the vehicle information indicates passable, after creation of the first warning information. The giving unit gives the recovery information.

Abstract: A traveling assisting method for an ambulance vehicle includes the first to third steps. The first step is the step of causing a server to acquire an expected arrival time at which an ambulance vehicle arrives at a traffic intersection that is located on an expected traveling route of the ambulance vehicle. The second step is the step of causing the server to acquire an expected arrival time at which a vehicle arrives at the traffic intersection, when the vehicle is located in surroundings of the expected traveling route. The third step is the step of causing the server to transmit a restraint instruction to the vehicle to travel toward the traffic intersection and to restrain entry of a vehicle other than the ambulance vehicle into the traffic intersection.

Abstract: A school-travel assistance system includes automobiles. The automobiles include communication modules configured to communicate with each other, and are configured to perform auto-driving. At least one of the automobiles includes a camera configured to detect the group of children. The automobiles perform assistance control (first and second assistance controls) in which they cooperatively assist movement of the group of children, while communicating with each other through the communication modules. The assistance control is control of assisting the movement of the group of children by the automobile traveling in front of the group of children and the automobile traveling behind the group of children.

Abstract: A driving assistance system includes a plurality of in-vehicle devices configured to communicate with a roadside device. The plurality of in-vehicle devices are mounted on a plurality of vehicles travelling in a row, respectively. Based on information on a response to travelling in a row, acquired from the roadside device, one of the plurality of in-vehicle devices determines whether a traffic signal controller that controls a traffic signal device is configured to perform control to give priority to the plurality of vehicles travelling in a row. Based on a result of the determination, the driving assistance system selects one in-vehicle device, from among the plurality of in-vehicle devices, to transmit, to the roadside device, a request signal requesting to give priority to the plurality of vehicles.
