Vehicle monitoring arrangement tracks and records vehicle operation for post vehicle use supervision. In one specific embodiment, a record of vehicle-operation data contains periodic recordings of speed and direction of a vehicle while it was being driven, as such data is provided by a conventional electronic compass and the vehicle's electronic speed indicating signal. A processor performs calculations using speed and directional data to calculate acceleration and rate of directional change. Vehicle operation data from the recording devices and the calculations performed is compared to stored reference data to determine if the vehicle was abused or driven in an unsafe manner by the operator. The data is output to a display showing vehicle operating data and instances where the vehicle was abused or driven in an unsafe manner.
