continuously. Connected vehicle telematics device (hereinafter interchangeable with "C-type" device). This device is one that is continuously connected, 24/7 to one vehicle. These C-type devices are either built-in to the vehicle's system during auto manufacturing or plugged-in after- market. By comparison, the other telematics device (S-type) can be shared for use by multiple vehicles. The C-type device has a primary objective other than transmitting OBD data to DEQ. Examples of after-market C-type devices include use by auto fleets to optimize driving routes and maintenance schedules and by usage-based auto insurance programs to help motorists achieve lower premiums. Key purposes of built-in, C-type devices are roadside assistance, stolen vehicle assistance, turn-by- turn navigation, hands-free calling, etc. Regardless of their primary purpose, these continuously connected devices can also capture OBD data and so they can be used for DEQ too.
