In recent years keyless cars have become extremely common on UK roads and driveways.
The idea behind keyless cars is to add further convenience and security for your valuable vehicle.
In theory, it should be much harder to steal your vehicle if the thief does not have your key barrel.
Up until recently, this was true, however savvy car thieves have developed methods to bypass this level of security.
More worrying is the fact that these techniques are extremely quick, fully covert and highly effective!
The good news is that the main purpose of the CAT S5 trackers with DRS (Driver Recognition System) is to counteract key theft, key cloning and relay theft and even OBD hacking.
Take a look at the S5 Trackers here
It has become apparent now that instead of the old school method of smashing a car window and hot wiring a vehicle, sophisticated groups of thieves are now skilled in hacking the onboard computer of the vehicle using cheap tech that they can freely purchase online.
By blocking the electronic locking mechanism and then using these illegal kits, they can download a new key from your car’s OBD port and drive your vehicle away in mere minutes without raising suspicion.
With more cars than ever using the ‘push button’ starting mechanism, the crime figures are growing year after year for this particular method of car theft.
If your insurance company have asked you to install a Thatcham approved tracker with anti key theft technology, then the most common options are the CAT 5 range.
TRACKERSHOP PROVIDE THE QUICKEST MOBILE INSTALLATION FOR ALL CAR INSURANCE TRACKERS. NATIONWIDE.
Our engineers will come to your home, work or dealership to fully install your device. We can typically have your tracker installed within 1-3 working days and cover every UK postcode.
The CAT S5 insurance trackers (Thatcham trackers) are the highest level of security accreditation available. In addition to tow away alerts, level 1 police response as standard, the CAT S5 tracker range also features DRS (Driver Recognition System). The authorised driver(s) of the vehicle are provided with a DRS card/fob, which you carry with you whenever you use the vehicle. This means that, even if your keys are stolen or cloned by a thief, if they attempt to move your vehicle the control centre is alerted immediately. They will then raise a level 1 police response to recover your vehicle, all within just a few minutes! The success rate for this method of security and recovery is very positive and is the reason why so many insurance companies are now insisting on CAT S5 trackers in London especially. |
However, even if your insurance company has not insisted on a CAT S5, and you feel you do not need all of the additional functions that it offers, you can still choose an S7 tracker that provides a DRS feature.
Even if your insurance company has mentioned that an S7 tracker will be sufficient for your vehicle, you may feel that you would like to benefit from the added security that comes with DRS.
The SmarTrack Protector Pro w/DRS offers all of the benefits of a standard S7 tracker, but with the bonus of being provided with the Driver Recognition System (complete with fobs), which will significantly reduce the risk of car theft for your vehicle.
In addition to the added security, if you mention to your insurance company that you are installing a higher level of security, they may offer a further reduction on your car insurance. So as well as providing peace of mind, you might even save some money too.
Whichever car insurance tracker that you require, Trackershop have a team of Thatcham approved mobile engineers working throughout the whole of the UK. Wherever you are, Trackershop will be able to arrange full installation in the quickest time available.
