It’s 11 p.m. and your 16-year-old son is driving 55 miles per hour in a 45-mph zone. You're sitting at home, miles away, but you know all about it.

You can call him and tell him to slow down. But will you? And will your kid be thrilled to get your call?
Of course your would not be thrilled to get a call like that but he wasn't speeding he wouldn't get a call uh. I think this device could be very usefull.
:D :D

I'm admitting if my daughter had this I might tend to overuse it especially if she were speeding. She is about to fly the coup in Sept. I hope she will be responsible on the roads this would be one way of knowing. Of course then she would have to answer her cell phone if I called and that would be dangerous too!:eek:

Well one way to solve the answering the phone in the car problem is to install a hands free device. I have one and other than people who don't like to talk to you because they are on speaker phone, it's great.

I think if you can have this device and it helps keep your child safe,then it is well worth it.

I am sure those tracking devises could be used for many things and many different ways. Hey they even make gps units that will go on a car or minivan that will feed back all info to the home base :D
