Abstract:
A handheld, portable device is used to facilitate inspection of vehicles, by generating an electronic vehicle inspection record that can be used by fleet operators to provide evidence of complying with required vehicle inspections. When the vehicle inspection record is generated, route identification data is added to the inspection record. The route identification data defines which of a plurality of predefined routes the vehicle has serviced, or will service, during a time period proximate the inspection of the vehicle. Fleet operators can thus use archived inspection records as evidence of compliance with inspection requirements, and to document what route a vehicle serviced at a particular time.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for automatically analyzing a plurality of vehicle inspection records to determine which of a plurality of predefined routes a specific vehicle has serviced during a time period proximate a specific vehicle inspection, comprising the steps of:\n (a) providing a plurality of electronic inspection records, each electronic inspection record including, time data identifying when the vehicle was inspected, inspection data relating to the inspection that was performed, route identification (ID) data defining the predefined route serviced by the vehicle during the time period proximate the inspection, entered by an operator in response to a prompt from a handheld inspection device, and driver ID data identifying a driver operating the vehicle during the time period proximate the inspection; (b) enabling a user to define at least one of the following parameters:\n (i) a specific time period proximate an inspection; \n (ii) a specific driver; and \n (iii) specific inspection data; and \n (c) using a computing device to automatically search the plurality of electronic inspection records to identify each route ID in the inspection record corresponding to each user defined parameter.
