Abstract

The arrangement has a central unit (7) which senses following traffic via an optical receiver unit (1). The distance to following traffic from an individual vehicle is determined by sensors (4). A vehicle following too closely is detected based on the current vehicle speed and this situation is pref. recorded in an image in a storage medium either electronically or photochemically. The optical receiver can be a video camera which records the situation either continuously or when the minimum safe separation is violated, when one or more images are stored.

Description

Im Straßenverkehr kommt es immer häufiger zu schweren Verkehrsunfällen, die durch nicht angepaßten Sicherheitsabstand des nachfolgenden Verkehrs verursacht werden. Ziel der Erfindung ist es, durch eine entsprechende Vorrichtung, den nachfolgenden Verkehr zu überwachen und bei ordnungswidrigem Fahrverhalten des nachfolgenden Verkehrs, wie zu dichtem Auffahren, dies zu registrieren, zur Anzeige des Fahrers zu bringen und Beweismaterial zu einer evtl. Strafanzeige zu bekommen.In road traffic there are more and more serious traffic accidents that are not caused by adjusted safety distance of the following traffic. goal of The invention is, through a corresponding device, the subsequent traffic monitor and in the event of improper driving behavior of subsequent traffic, such as dense driveway, register this, bring it to the driver's notice and To get evidence of a possible criminal complaint.

Die Vorrichtung kann in sämtliche Fahrzeuge eingebaut werden und den nachfolgenden Verkehr überwachen. Durch die abschreckende Wirkung einer möglichen strafrechtlichen Verfolgung übt dies in vielen Fällen eine erzieherische Wirkung aus, was zu einer Reduzierung von Verkehrsunfällen führen wird.The device can be installed in all vehicles and the following Monitor traffic. Due to the deterrent effect of a possible criminal Persecution in many cases has an educational effect, leading to a reduction from traffic accidents.
