  • Providing transit alternatives based on monitored vehicle characteristics
    Patent number: 10810675
    Abstract: Performance parameters of a vehicle can be measured by an on-board performance parameter measuring device. The performance parameters can be measured while the vehicle is being used. The measured performance parameters of the vehicle can be transmitted to a computing device. The computing device can be configured to generate a user cost that reflects a cost for insuring the vehicle based on the measured performance parameters of the vehicle. A graphical user interface can be generated by the computing device for presentation to a user via a display device, that graphical user interface can include the user cost. An alternative transportation route for the journey and an alternative transportation cost for the journey can be determined and presented to the user through the graphical user interface.
