+### Monitor
+
+The monitor command is similar to poll, but instead it prints lines of JSON
+continuously until the process is killed. You can use the `--output` option
+to specify a directory to write JSON files to that will contain this data.
+This creates a folder in the specified `output` directory with the current
+date, and then writes the JSON to folders that represent each trip taken.
+Inside each folder a JSON file is created. The name of the file will be
+0.json by default. Once this file reaches ~128KB in size a new file, 1.json
+will be created, and so on until the process is killed.
+
+Here's a sample command and output data:
+
+```
+$ obd monitor 0d:100 0c:1000 05:5000 -c serial -i /dev/tty.usbserial -b 38400
