DO YOUR REPS, SERVICE PERSONNEL OR DELIVERY DRIVERS use company vehicles? If so, these new products could help them drive more safely and help you manage your vehicles better.

Monitor driver and vehicle performance with the CarChip from Davis Instruments (www. davisnet.com), which plugs in to the OBDII connector port near a vehicle's steering wheel. The CarChip records data such as mileage as well as driver performance issues such as tailgating.

Pop the CarChip out and plug it in to your PC to check your data. The system includes the chip, software, an AC adapter and a download cable, and costs $139 (for a version that records 75 hours of data) or $179 (for the 300-hour version). For more on tracking your fleet, read "Wireless" on page 33.
