According to the height change of the oil float in the fuel tank, the pointer of the fuel gauge of the car itself is not so accurate, and most models can only be seen by the driver himself, and cannot be viewed remotely. Fleet owners generally hire drivers for their cars, and some drivers steal or cheat on fuel, which cannot be monitored in real-time. Vehicle data such as fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, oil spill reports, and fuel consumption trend reports are key indicators for business owners and managers to evaluate the driver. However, most fleets are now unable
Where should the dashcam be installed? The dashcam should be installed in the upper center of the front windshield, that is, near the interior rearview mirror. First of all, we should try to hide it behind the rearview mirror of the car. The best thing about it is that it is completely blocked and won’t appear in the field of vision while driving. Second, look at the fixing method of the dashcam. If it is fixed by a suction cup, avoid the black particle area on the windshield of some cars, otherwise, the adsorption may not be firm. At that
