Lemur Autovision to help increase road safety
If used correctly, that is. The Lemur Autovision is a device that is a snap to install in just about any vehicle, and it helps you get a clearer picture on your driving, recording important information like speed, distance and brakes while you tear up asphalt in your vehicle. Parents who review such data after their kids have taken out the family car for a spin will be able to better advise the younger ones on picking up life-saving pointers when driving.
Some of the features available on the Lemur Autovision include :-
- Real-time feedback
- Reports speed, distance, brakes
- Convenient keychain LCD
- Easy to install
- Affordable – no monthly fees
- Tamper Proof and PIN protected
You can pick up the Lemur Autovision for $99.95 a pop, and unless used responsibly, it will remain pretty much useless when it comes to cutting down the number of road accidents and fatalities. Still, a tool like this should not go unnoticed as any bit could go a long way in helping us make our roads safer for everyone.

Hello,
Thanks for the comments.
Parents are paying thousands of dollars in insurance premiums for teen drivers, then penalized twice or three times that amount when their teen gets into an accident. Statistically this amounts to 1 in 4 teens in the first year of driving.
With Lemur Autovision, parents now have a comparatively inexpensive ($99) means to record 3 specific metrics associated with causes of most teen traffic collisions. That is speeding, inexperience and driver distraction,
Actively reviewing the data from each trip with their teens, parents have an idea how well their kids are driving and can be engaged in the process. Otherwise, they have no idea.

I’m really not seeing how this will make us drive safer! Even going back and reviewing the information afterwards – unless you have some kind of video taped “play by play” so that you can recognize situations that cause you to drive badly – this sounds like a gadget to me. Doesn’t mean I don’t want one – just not sure it’ll make me drive safer!
