  • Patent number: 9646290
    Abstract: A method for fleet management can be created using a vehicle maintenance tracker for at least one vehicle and performing a vehicle inspection on the at least one vehicle using an inspection device to identify services needed on the vehicle. The vehicle inspection can then be transferred to a mechanic for verification of services needed on the vehicle. The vehicle inspection can provide a verification of services needed to the vehicle maintenance tracker and generate at least one of: vehicle repair information prioritized by importance of services, a schedule for vehicle service prioritized by importance of services needed, and a vehicle return to service date based on a schedule for vehicle service prioritized by importance of services needed.

  • Publication number: 20160358129
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for analyzing, predicting, and processing an accident. One embodiment for analyzing includes identifying a type of the accident based on evidence, wherein the identifying comprises by an accident tracker app loaded on a device and optionally a fleet management system, wherein the accident tracker app and the fleet management system are in network connection and associated with logic, processors, and data storage. The methods and systems may include enabling logic for assessing, by the accident tracker app, the fleet management system, or combination thereof, severity of the accident based on the evidence related to the accident. Further, the methods and systems may include enabling logic for comparing, by the accident tracker app, the fleet management system, or combination thereof, the evidence for the accident, and for determining, by the accident tracker app, the fleet management system, or combination thereof, a disposition for the accident.
