Re: GPS Tracking

I don't mind this at all. Lots of good can come from it, especially in regards to situations such as Amber alerts. What I don't want is what the rental car companies have in place where they fine you for going over the speed limit thanks to software that tracks how fast you go on certain roads.

you realize that most kidnappings aren't known of well in advance? an amber alert is oftentimes a very immediate response to a missing child, not something that's had an eye kept on it for awhile

I'd love to know what rental companies track their customers speed?

Sorry to hear that, heard they can be brutal to work for. I have a buddy that worked there for a long time, he ended up leaving after getting screwed over several times.
