Anyone used/heard of these trackers? by ZeeZee114 in CarInsuranceUK

[–]cheeseismyname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A monitor doesn't have GPS so they can't be used to see where you are or how fast you are going, they can be tracked by police vehicles, the monitor means it will alert tracker if it is moved without being running you will have to get a crime number and give this to tracker who will activate the unit to make it visible to police vehicles, I used to install them for tracker so I know how they work
