determine whether a user arrives at a vehicle;
upon determination that the user arrives at the vehicle, capture a first image of an interior of the vehicle before the user gets in the vehicle;
determine whether the user gets out of the vehicle;
upon determination that the user gets out of the vehicle, capture a second image of the vehicle after the user gets out of the vehicle;
detect a first change in a state of the interior of the vehicle by comparing first luminance values of pixels of the first image to second luminance values of pixels of the second image;
acquire report information indicating a second change in the state of the vehicle based on responses of the user to a plurality of questions regarding the state of the interior of the vehicle;
determine whether the report information includes information about the second change;
upon determination that the report information includes the second change, modify a total number of points assigned to the user;
determine whether the first change coincides with the second change;
upon determination that the first change coincides with the second change, modify the total number of points assigned to the user;
determine whether the first change comprises a deterioration of the vehicle;
upon determination that the first change does not comprise the deterioration of the vehicle, modify the total number of points assigned to the user;
determine whether the second change includes information that is not included in the first change;
