Methods and systems are described for generating a vehicle-to-vehicle traffic alert. Various aspects may include detecting that an abnormal traffic condition exists in an operating environment of a vehicle and generating a related electronic message. The electronic message may be transmitted via the vehicle's transceiver using a wireless communication to a nearby vehicle to alert the nearby vehicle of the abnormal traffic condition and to allow the nearby vehicle to avoid the abnormal traffic condition.

1. A computer-implemented method of generating a vehicle-to-vehicle traffic alert, the method comprising: detecting, via one or more processors, that an abnormal traffic condition exists in an operating environment of a vehicle;generating, via the one or more processors, an electronic message regard
1. A computer-implemented method of generating a vehicle-to-vehicle traffic alert, the method comprising: detecting, via one or more processors, that an abnormal traffic condition exists in an operating environment of a vehicle;generating, via the one or more processors, an electronic message regarding the abnormal traffic condition;transmitting, via a vehicle-mounted transceiver associated with the vehicle, the electronic message to a nearby vehicle, wherein the electronic message is transmitted via wireless communication to alert the nearby vehicle of the abnormal traffic condition and to allow the nearby vehicle to avoid the abnormal traffic condition; andupdating a risk aversion profile associated with a vehicle operator of the nearby vehicle based upon the electronic message, wherein the risk aversion profile is associated with a travel environment for the nearby vehicle, the travel environment including at least an environment where the nearby vehicle has traveled two or more times. 2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is one or more of the following: an erratic vehicle, an erratic driver, road construction, a closed highway exit, slowed or slowing traffic, slowed or slowing vehicular congestion, or one or more other vehicles braking ahead of the vehicle. 3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is bad weather and the electronic message indicates a GPS location of the bad weather. 4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, the method further comprising generating an auto insurance discount associated with the vehicle. 5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the nearby vehicle comprises one or more of the following: an autonomous vehicle, a semi-autonomous vehicle or a self-driving vehicle, and wherein the nearby vehicle includes one or more processors for receiving the transmitted electronic message. 6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the transmitting the electronic message to the nearby vehicle requires transmitting the electronic message to one or more remote processors. 7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is detected by analyzing vehicular telematics data. 8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the nearby vehicle travels to the operating environment of the vehicle. 9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, the method further comprising transmitting the electronic message to a smart infrastructure component, wherein the smart infrastructure component: analyzes the electronic message to determine a type of anomalous condition for the abnormal traffic condition; andperforms an action based on the type of anomalous condition in order to modify the anomalous condition. 10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the electronic message contains location information of the abnormal traffic condition, and wherein the nearby vehicle ignores the electronic message when the location information indicates that the abnormal traffic condition is beyond a threshold distance from the nearby vehicle. 11. A computer system configured to generate a vehicle-to-vehicle traffic alert, the computer system comprising one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to: detect that an abnormal traffic condition exists in an operating environment of a vehicle;generate an electronic message regarding the abnormal traffic condition;transmit, via a vehicle-mounted transceiver associated with the vehicle, the electronic message to a nearby vehicle, wherein the electronic message is transmitted via wireless communication to alert the nearby vehicle of the abnormal traffic condition and to allow the nearby vehicle to avoid the abnormal traffic condition; andupdate a risk aversion profile associated with a vehicle operator of the nearby vehicle based upon the electronic message, wherein the risk aversion profile is associated with a travel environment for the nearby vehicle, the travel environment including at least an environment where the nearby vehicle has traveled two or more times. 12. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is one or more of the following: an erratic vehicle, an erratic driver, road construction, a closed highway exit, slowed or slowing traffic, slowed or slowing vehicular congestion, or one or more other vehicles braking ahead of the vehicle. 13. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is bad weather and the electronic message indicates a GPS location of the bad weather. 14. The computer system of claim 11, the system further configured to generate an alternate route for the nearby vehicle to take to avoid the abnormal traffic condition. 15. The computer system of claim 11, the system further configured to generate, an auto insurance discount associated with the vehicle. 16. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the one or more processors is one or more of the following: vehicle-mounted sensors or vehicle-mounted processors. 17. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the nearby vehicle comprises one or more of the following: an autonomous vehicle, a semi-autonomous vehicle or a self-driving vehicle, and wherein the nearby vehicle includes one or more processors for receiving the transmitted electronic message. 18. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the transmission of the electronic message to the nearby vehicle requires transmission of the electronic message to one or more remote processors. 19. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the abnormal traffic condition is detected by analyzing vehicular telematics data. 20. The computer system of claim 11, wherein the nearby vehicle travels to the operating environment of the vehicle.
