The BLUECAL 'ProCarSaver' is a [vehicle recording device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vehicle-intelligence) that aims to continuously keep an eye on how your car is functioning to offer drivers proof of a malfunction in the event of an accident.

Vehicular malfunction can be difficult to prove after an accident has occurred, so the device works by providing drivers with a snapshot of how their vehicle was performing just before and right after the event unfolded. This could act as proof of a [vehicle-related malfunction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vehicle-performance-data) that could help drivers to prove they were unable to prevent the incident from occurring.

The BLUECAL 'ProCarSaver' slips discreetly into a vehicle's OBD-II port and will keep a record of up to [nine previous trips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realtime-vehicle-data), which will also offer drivers an accurate snapshot of their driving habits and fuel economy.
