A system and method are disclosed for monitoring motor vehicle movement parameters, such as speed, location and acceleration, for assessing the driving habits of inexperienced drivers and rewarding good driving habits or punishing poor driving habits in order to reduce speed-related driving accident
A system and method are disclosed for monitoring motor vehicle movement parameters, such as speed, location and acceleration, for assessing the driving habits of inexperienced drivers and rewarding good driving habits or punishing poor driving habits in order to reduce speed-related driving accidents. The system includes a hand-held, self-contained, portable device capable of being securely mounted to or locked on or within a motor vehicle and capable of sensing the instantaneous speed of the vehicle using a Global Positioning System (GPS), accelerometer, or both. The GPS location data along with elapsed time information may be used to calculate the speed and acceleration of the vehicle. Alternatively, separate acceleration and speed detecting devices may be used such as transducers. The system is operated by a parent or guardian of the driver or a commercial, governmental or private monitoring service. The method of operating the invention includes mounting the device, collecting vehicle monitoring data, comparing the data to pre-established standards and awarding a prize or administering a punishment.

The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains diagnosis information of a wiring and input/output units connected to said wiring determined as being abnormal in dependency on whether an input/output continue to be deviated from a prescribed range in a specification. 13. The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains diagnosis information of a catalyst for cleaning exhaust gas determined as being abnormal on the basis of a ratio of an inversion period of an output value of an A/F ratio sensor at an upstream side and at a downstream of said catalyst for cleaning exhaust gases of an engine. 14. The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains an A/F ratio sensor information determined as being abnormal on the basis of a time to reach a target A/F ratio or an inversion time of a sensor output value. 15. The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains a recirculating exhaust gas system information determined as being abnormal on the basis of an amount of variance in either one of an intake air amount, an intake pipe pressure or an EGR gas temperature accompanied with an executing/halting of recirculating exhaust gas. 16. The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains a misfire diagnosis information of an ignition system determined by whether a misfire of said ignition system occurs or not on the basis of a difference in a rotational rate of an engine between cylinders in a predetermined crank angle interval. 17. The vehicle management system according to claim 1, wherein said diagnosis information contains diagnosis information of a sensor determined as being abnormal on the basis of output values of sensors.
