Abstract:
A vehicle is provided that includes an input that receives a temporary user mode command from a user and a detector that detects and acquires biometric information of the temporary user. When the temporary user mode command is input from the user a controller registers the biometric information of the temporary user acquired by the detector and grants an authority for access and operation of the vehicle to the temporary user. Thus, the vehicle may more rapidly grant an authority for the use of the vehicle to a temporary user having an intention of temporarily using the vehicle, and since biometric information of the temporary user is deleted when a predetermined period of time has expired, the risk of the theft is reduced.
