Over the twoyearperiod, corporate officials reportedzero accidents.Fleet Operations Manager, AlgeriaIt’s not an exaggeration to say that for thisproject, <strong>CarChip</strong> provided a more reliableand cost-effective means to obtain vehicleoperating data than any other approachesthat we know.Air Pollution Researcher, CaliforniaRecently had a customer ring me about anincident involving one of their motor vehicles.Using information from their <strong>DriveRight</strong> 600,I was able to redirect their culpability ofinvolvement. The cost of the <strong>DriveRight</strong> wasrepaid just on this occasion alone.Driver Training, Australia<strong>CarChip</strong> is a simple tool every fleet managercan use. Ever since we began using it andinforming drivers that their vehicle “may”have a vehicle data recorder installed, citizencomplaints have decreased.University Fleet Manager, NebraskaA note for our internationalcustomers.OBDII on-board diagnostics became mandatory for all cars,pickups, and vans manufactured for sale in the U.S. andCanada beginning with model-year 1996. Many vehiclesmanufactured for sale elsewhere are also OBDII-compliant,and <strong>CarChip</strong> Fleet Pro and the OBD version of <strong>DriveRight</strong>600E will work with these vehicles as well. However, thereis no easy way to tell which are OBDII-compliant and whichare not, even if the vehicle appears to have the properconnector. If you want to use <strong>CarChip</strong> Fleet Pro or the OBDversion of <strong>DriveRight</strong> 600E, we suggest that you purchasea sample unit and test it in your fleet before committing toa larger purchase.DAVIS INSTRUMENTS15
