If the installed chromedriver version does not match your browser's version please try to empty pip's cache or disable the cache during (re-)installation.
Usage
To use chromedriver just import chromedriver_binary

.
Example
from selenium import webdriver
import chromedriver_binary # Adds chromedriver binary to path
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title
Exporting chromedriver binary path
