IDENTIFYING AN ORIGIN OF ABNORMAL DRIVING BEHAVIOR FOR IMPROVED VEHICLE OPERATION

The disclosure includes embodiments for identifying an origin of abnormal driving behavior for improved vehicle operation. A method includes identifying an abnormal driving behavior of a driver of a vehicle at a time T. The method includes identifying a set of events that occurred within a predetermined time Δt before time T. The method includes executing, by a processor, a cause-and-effect analysis on the set of events to determine one or more events from the set of events that caused the abnormal driving behavior. The method includes executing a strategy to reduce the abnormal driving behavior so that vehicle operation is improved.
