When you tap on Permit Sharing and Misuse Timer, a menu will open allowing you to chose the length of time the first vehicle capture will be "remembered" by the system. Once you set a time the function is turned on.

In our example the system will present a warning if the second vehicle is scanned within an hour of the first vehicle scan. After that point the first read is forgotten so to speak and the process starts over again.

**Permit Misuse Alert**

When you search for a vehicle that shares a permit with another that was recently seen, an alert will appear on the device to notify you of possible permit misuse.
