There’s a fine line between tracking your own vehicle (which happens to be driven by your spouse, or perhaps your next-Ex-spouse) when your name is on the title… and tracking your EX-spouse (I think they call that one STALKING). LOL.

It is what it is, whether you like the answer or not. If a crime is committed – especially a violent crime – a judge won’t hesitate to issue a subpoena to find out where the device came from (particularly if you’re dumb enough to put it where it can be easily located).

There are a number of motorcycle manufacturers who offer this product as an option with their bikes, and countless hundreds upon hundreds of cyclists use this regularly. Even law enforcement agencies are now putting these highway patrol bikes for officer safety (so they know where to send help when there’s an officer down).

So to answer your question more directly, it ranges from $1.00 per day to $1.33 per day for unlimited service with no contract (service is month-to-month).

It depends on the device. The hard-wired device (installed under the dash with everything hidden takes about 10 minutes) doesn’t require batteries be recharged. That device is $29.95 per month for 10-second updates or $39.95 for 5-second updates (unlimited usage with no long-term contract). The battery-operated rechargeable PTX5 is $39.95 per month for unlimited usage and updates every 10 seconds or 20 feet (depending on the speed at which it’s moving).

Nobody can hack into it unless you supply them with the userid and password – and those two items can be as simple or as complex as you want.

Yes, it can. With the Serial number of the device, law enforcement agencies and prosecutors routinely find themselves searching for the manufacturers of devices (every device on the market, at this point) in an effort to track down the owner who purchased it. Commit a murder and then tell someone you had a tracking device on your vehicle when you transported the body, and you can BET they’re going to be knocking on the door of the company who manufactured it, demanding records.

I’d put one on my bike, as I’ve had 18 bikes stolen, 4 of them locked. 8 were stolen in San Francisco, 4 in Mountain View, 2 in Sunnyvale, and one each in Redwood City, Los Altos, Palo Alto, and San Jose.

Roughly 35% of our customers have their devices installed by a mechanic. The remaining 65% either install it themselves or have a friend help them install it.

If the Judge issued a subpoena, yes, we would comply and tell him who bought the device. But the likelihood of discovery is pretty slim.

How would the judge be able to be shown who put the box there? Can it be backtracked?

So, if one person has installed a GPS module, then other people can hack into it and get the same info?

Thanks much for all your informative comments. Where are the places hardwired units can be placed? Does it generally take a mechanic to install?

As far as where to …
As far as where to hide it… it can be anywhere on the vehicle. Our battery-powered PT-class devices can even work when hidden in the spare tire compartment in the trunk of the vehicle (on most vehicles). Sometimes in magnetic box under the vehicle. Sometimes under the dash of the vehicle. Pretty much anywhere you can get power to the device (for hardwired units), or anywhere else for battery-powered units.

3. If you own a business, you have the right to ride with those employees in your company vehicle to ensure the employee is doing his job. This is no different than riding with the employee. It’s a HUGE management tool which allows you to dispatch and manage employees in the field. Even with contractors in private vehicles, require it as a condition of their contract. If they don’t agree, then they don’t want you seeing where they go when they claim to be working for you… so don’t hire them.

2. Tracking a teenager – odds are your name is on the title of the vehicle, and it’s a VERY powerful tool which enables you to supervise your teen’s driving habits and keep him out of trouble. Also very easy to put geofences around the areas he shouldn’t be and get email or sms text message notifications if he goes into any of the areas where he shouldn’t be.

1. If your name is on the title of the vehicle, it is legal in most circumstances to put a tracker on your vehicle (after all, it’s a theft recovery device, and it DOES reduce insurance rates). This is handy when you have a spouse you suspect of cheating. Exception: Once you’ve filed for divorce, it’s called stalking. BAD idea – and one the judge certainly won’t approve of (if he finds out).

Can this device be put on someone’s vehicle without them knowing it? If so, where is the most likely spot to hide it – not that you’ve even done that yourself, I’m sure! ;-)

I agree with what you said about payment for time. Also, the Mom of the teenager, shown, has the right to monitor what happens to the teen as long as the teen is living at home, and/or under 18, and getting free food, shelter, etc.

I’m into GPS logging and mapping myself but when any dude, mom or a parent or employer wants to “track” for all the good authentic reasons, and you subject yourself willingly to it by agreeing… you don’t have any reason to feel nor speak out like a hypocrite thereafter!!! If I install a similar device, so others including my close and beloved ones can tag me anytime…

I am NOT a “good little sheep”. I am an employer. I create jobs. And I can tell you firsthand that people behave differently when they know the boss is watching.

whatever, if you want to be a good little sheep and enjoy people not trusting you to do your job, be my guest.
Youre partially right though, ill give you that.
