I purchased this product from a different website before I found it here (for cheaper!!!). Anyway, setup the product in minutes as it claims. Gave the keys to my son and explained to him I would know how fast he was going. It was pretty easy to review the information when he returned. Best feature probably is maximum speed. Just by looking at the keys I know how fast he has been going. But I also like that it is tamper proof, or I will at least know if he messes with the system. If I could add one thing it would be that it would report fast accelerations. Overall I think it is a great product, my son may have a different opinion but at least now he drives slower.

Product Description:
The Safe Driving Monitor is not a GPS unit, or "spy" device. Instead, it is a product designed to provide feedback on driving behavior. When used by new drivers, this feedback encourages open discussion and trust between parents and their teen drivers who have use of a car but may have yet to master the skills and disciple needed to be a safe driver. This feedback is also valuable in the workplace as a tool to reinforce good driving habits by those whose jobs require them to be behind the wheel while on the clock.

Use at work and at home.
Viewlarger. Why Monitor Driving Habits?
Safe driving skills take time to learn and practice, and they need reinforcement to maintain. At a minimum, this means obeying posted speed limits and paying full attention to the road. The Safe Driving Monitor is designed to make the driver, regardless of age and experience, accountable for their performance and as a result, promote safe driving. When used properly, it will allow parents to know how their teen has driven. Employers and fleet managers will be able to monitor the way their vehicles are used, with an eye towards maximizing fuel efficiency and minimizing the cost of maintenance and potential traffic accidents.


What Does It Measure?
The Safe Driving Monitor concentrates on three critical metrics that can be recorded per trip or driver: maximum miles per hour, which might indicate a tendency for speeding; total distance traveled, which is part of the basis for determining fuel consumed by a particular driver; and the total number sudden braking events (speed reductions of 15 mph/25 km or more, in less than 2 seconds), which could indicate how much attention a driver is paying to conditions on the road.

Viewlarger. How Does It Work?
The Safe Driving Monitor relies entirely on plug-and-play wireless technology to mine driving data, which means that it requires no tools or even a computer to use. The unit consists of two pieces: a sensor and a key fob. The sensor pulls data directly from your car via the vehicle's OBD-II port. The data is then sent wirelessly to the key fob, which displays the data. The key fob can be attached to the driver's keychain or stored elsewhere. An OBD-II, or "Onboard Diagnostics" port is a standard feature usually located under the driver's side of the dashboard on nearly all cars, vans and light trucks manufactured worldwide since 1996, so the Safe Driving Monitor enjoys nearly universal compatibility aside from a few exceptions.* Key fobs kept in the car register data in real-time and are updated every few seconds, while fobs not in the car can be synched after the fact when brought into range of the still attached sensor while the car is running. The unit also features fob PIN protection, additional security functionality that indicates whether the sensor has been tampered with, the choice of standard or metric data measurement, power supplied jointly by your car's engine and a standard CR2450 lithium battery, and simple, fast setup and reset procedures.
