Logistical and accident response radio identifier

摘要

An accident response radio identification system is provided for use with vehicles carrying hazardous loads for identifying the loads to safety personnel when the vehicle is involved in an accident. A first communication unit on the motor vehicle is adapted to selectively transmit information describing the hazardous load in response to receiving an activation signal from a remote second communication unit. The second communication unit is adapted to convert the information describing the hazardous load received from the first communication unit into a form intelligible by human safety personnel. In addition, a logistics system is provided for use with a motor for compiling logistical information relating to an accumulated time the motor vehicle is driven. The system includes a memory unit for storing driving log information, a sensor for sensing movement of the vehicle and a control unit for receiving signals from the sensor and converting the signals into vehicle operation information and storing that information in the memory as the driving log information.
