Abstract
A system and method for managing vehicle usage. One system includes a monitoring device, a position identifying module, a communication module and a dedicated server. The monitoring device includes a display, an activation unit, an application and an identification module. The dedicated server is connected to the monitoring device via the communication module via a communication link The monitoring device and dedicated server are arranged to carry out the method that comprises the stages: (i) enabling a user to activate a monitoring device; (ii) receiving activation notice, user data and location from the monitoring device; (iii) validating user data; (iv) sending an electronic image to the monitoring device; and (v) displaying the electronic image on the monitoring device. The electronic image is sent upon validation of user data and in relation to the location received from the monitoring device, and authenticates vehicle usage conditions.
