The above explanation is based on the assumption of one vehicle model of the user on the highway. Of course, the amount of money to be compensated for the standard travel time and the amount of delay damage in relation to the regulated speed, highway fee, etc. However, it is possible to cope with this problem by storing the standard travel time corresponding to the contracted vehicle type, the highway toll table, etc. in the database.
As described above, it is possible to provide a delay loss calculation system on an expressway that can achieve the effect described in “Effects of the Invention”.

The traffic damage delay calculation system 1 according to the present invention is applied not only to the above-described expressway but also to other traffic networks by “collecting information on the entrance and exit of the tunnel” when the traffic network is compared to a tunnel. can do. Further, the present invention is not limited to car movement, and can also be applied to a person who travels, a parcel baggage, and the like. The contents will be described next.
Table 1 summarizes information necessary for implementing the present invention.
The target is not limited to cars, but can be extended to people, luggage, etc., and the transportation network can also be used for buses, trains, airliners, courier services, ferries and the like.
The information medium, the movement information, the reference, and the actual movement time at that time can also be realized by using SUICA, PASMO, mileage card, and the like.

Specifically, a toll bridge or the like can be realized by an ETC card, a departure point gate, and an arrival point gate. For buses and highway buses, it can be realized by SUICA, PASMO and card reading when getting on and off the bus. The train is based on the use of SUICA. Passenger aircraft are not currently available due to discounts such as early discounts, but can be realized by mileage card (credit card cooperation) and card reading at the boarding gate. Further, for the home delivery service, the difference between the delivery time designation and the arrival time can be realized by using a barcode reader.
The ferry can be realized by collecting information on boarding and disembarking for people and cars.
From this, it is possible to implement a damage compensation system for people, goods, and automobiles due to delays in all types of transportation including highways.
