The vehicle detection device 11 can detect various driving information generated in the driving process and store the information in an appropriate storage medium (P51). The information detected by the vehicle detection device 11 or the information stored in the storage medium may be transmitted to the gender unit 12 (P54). The gender unit 12 can be connected to the vehicle detection device 11 via appropriate intermediary means and the connection status can be detected by the gender unit 12 or the vehicle detection device 11 (P52).

After the connection state is detected, it is possible to determine whether the transmission is possible by the control unit provided in the gender unit 12 or the vehicle detection device 11. [ If it is not determined that the vehicle is in a transmittable state (NO), the detection information is received and stored in the storage medium installed in the vehicle detection apparatus. Otherwise, if it is judged that the vehicle can be transmitted (YES), the driving information is transmitted from the vehicle detecting device 11 to the gender unit 12, while the driving information is stored in the vehicle detecting device 11 and the gender unit 12 (P54). Then, the connection state of the gender unit 12 or the vehicle information recording apparatus 11 can be detected (P55). If the information is not transferable (NO), the driving information can be stored in the vehicle detection device 11 and the gender unit 11, respectively (P54). If the driving information can be transmitted from the gender unit 11 to the vehicle driving recorder 13 (YES), the driving information can be transmitted from the gender unit 12 to the vehicle driving recorder 13 via short-range wireless communication . The vehicle driving recorder 13 can be installed inside the vehicle and is capable of data communication with the gender unit 12 by a local communication method such as wired communication, Bluetooth communication or Wi-Fi communication. Then, the driving information can be transmitted to the touch screen electronic device 14 (P56) from the vehicle recording device 13 by the short-range wireless communication method, and the driving information from the touch screen electronic device 14 can be transmitted The management information can be transmitted to a management server such as an information analysis system. An application for receiving, transmitting and classifying driving information is installed in the touch-screen electronic device 14, and the driving information can be appropriately processed and transmitted to the management server (P57). In addition, the travel information can be stored in the touch-screen electronic device 14 and used by passengers during the travel.

The driving information can be transmitted from the vehicle detection unit 11 to the touch screen electronic device 14 in real time. The driving information can be transmitted from the vehicle detection device 11 to the touch screen electronic device 14 in various ways, and the present invention is not limited to the proposed transmission method.

The information to be detected from the gender unit vehicle driving recorder according to the present invention is automatically transmitted to the driving record analysis system 15. [ In addition, the driving information transmission system according to the present invention enables the storage and processing of driving information to be performed so that the driving information can be analyzed in real time or periodically. Thus, it is possible to provide information useful for the vehicle operation while real-time statistical processing of information on the vehicle is possible. In addition, the operation information transmission system according to the present invention allows the process of acquiring the vehicle operation information to be performed automatically, thereby improving the reliability of the vehicle operation information.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention . The invention is not limited by these variations and modifications, but is limited only by the claims appended hereto.
