A new system called Tracker Response uses GPS technology and a driver validation set-up. If the car is started by someone without the special electronic tag, a text message or E-mail is sent to the owner. They can call a control centre to say whether the motor should be moving or not - and even monitor the vehicle"s movements remotely via any PC! Anxious parents will also be able to keep an eye on how fast grown-up children are driving when they borrow the car, as the unit has a speed limit alert function.
