The tracking module includes a processor, a power unit, a GPS receiver, operable to periodically determine the vehicle's location based upon GPS readings, a memory unit, and a transport interface, operable to connect to a base station and transmit the data records to the base station. Error correction is provided during periods of poor GPS reception using existing data records. The tracking module includes user input, operable to put the tracking module into a business mode while the tracking module is still in the vehicle wherein subsequent locations, the distance between the subsequent locations and the time of travel is logged in a data record and flagged as a business trip.
