  Further, when the vehicle passes through the toll gate on the highway, information for specifying the position of the vehicle is transmitted from the on-board device to the operation management device 5, so that the vehicle can be periodically transmitted from the radio mounted on the vehicle. The number of communications can be reduced as compared with the conventional system that transmits the position information.

  In addition, there are many transportation bases where goods are delivered between inter-base transportation trucks and regional delivery trucks near the expressway interchanges. At such transportation bases, there are interchanges from the transportation truck to the transportation base. As long as the information indicating that the vehicle has passed the toll gate can be acquired, preparations for delivery of the transportation truck luggage can be made before the transportation truck arrives at the transportation base.

  Therefore, when a vehicle such as a transport truck passes through the exit toll gate of the highway, if the information for specifying the position of the vehicle is transmitted from the vehicle-mounted device mounted on the vehicle, the operation management device 5 Can accurately recognize whether or not a vehicle such as a transport truck is located at an interchange toll gate in the vicinity of the transport base by one communication from the vehicle-mounted device. And if the transport truck is located at the interchange toll booth near the transport base, instructing the preparation for delivery of the transport truck luggage in advance will enable smooth delivery of the luggage and shorten the package delivery time. Can be planned.

  Moreover, although the onboard equipment in the said embodiment showed about the example which communicates with the operation management apparatus 5 using the mobile telephone 4, for example, without using a mobile telephone, PHS (Personal Handyphone System), PDA (Personal Digital). Assistants) or the like.

  In the above embodiment, the toll gate code included in the passing information transmitted from the road unit is described as an example of the toll gate code for identifying the toll gate. However, the toll gate code is not limited to the toll gate code. For example, an ETC gate ID transmitted from a roadside device may be used. The ETC gate ID is identification information for identifying the ETC gate where the roadside device is installed. In this case, location information for each ETC gate ID may be registered in advance in the toll gate code map of the operation management device.

  In the above embodiment, the toll gate code received from the road unit 1 by the ETC on-board unit 2 is transmitted from the on-board unit as “information for specifying the position of the vehicle”. For example, when the mobile phone 4 has a built-in GPS receiver and communication is performed between the ETC vehicle-mounted device 2 and the roadside device 1, the vehicle position is specified. The position information measured by the GPS receiver of the mobile phone 4 may be transmitted to the operation management device 5 as “information to do”.

  In the flowcharts shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, an example in which connection is made by a public line when connecting from the mobile phone 4 of the vehicle-mounted device to the operation management apparatus 5 is shown, but the Internet provider is not limited to the public line. May be connected to the Internet via the Internet, and may be connected to the operation management device 5 via the Internet.

  Further, when the vehicle passes through the exit toll gate or the uniform toll gate, the fee information transmitted from the on-road unit 1 is received by the ETC on-board device 2 of the on-vehicle device, and the charging data is received based on the received fee information. The charging data may be added to the information transmitted from the vehicle-mounted device to the operation management device 5. Thus, the billing data when the vehicle passes through the toll road can be automatically transmitted to the operation management device, and the toll on the toll road can be accurately managed by the operation management device. This eliminates the need for a user to declare tolls for toll roads.

  The entrance information and the charge information transmitted from the mobile phone 4 of the in-vehicle device include the toll gate code and the passage time, respectively. The operation management device 5 is based on the entrance information and the charge information transmitted from the on-vehicle device. The required time from the entrance toll gate to the exit toll gate can be calculated, and the congestion situation of the toll road can be estimated based on the calculated required time. In addition, the estimated congestion status can be communicated to other vehicles as congestion information.

  In the above embodiment, the past travel record stored in the storage device of the operation management apparatus is an example in which information such as the average required time in each travel route obtained by the past travel record is databased. As described above, the crew member's experience or the like may be added to information such as the average time required for each travel route.
