This may indicate how over-stretched police forces are, but also shows how it is extremely difficult to locate a stolen car, without a vehicle tracking device.

Therefore, with car theft increasing, it’s become more important than ever to install car trackers in Glasgow and throughout key crime hotspots in the UK.

S5 CAR TRACKERS IN GLASGOW

Trackershop has been installing more S5 car trackers in Glasgow this year than ever before.

This is likely due to the escalation of vehicle theft in the area.

The S5 is the highest category for Thatcham approved vehicle trackers.

As well as the same benefits as the S7 category, you will also have additional ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition) security.

ADR helps protect you against key theft, key cloning, relay attack. These are some of the most common, quick and effective methods of vehicle theft.

The ADR system is installed covertly with your tracking device. As the authorised driver of the vehicle, you will either carry a small fob or download the phone app, so that when you enter/leave your vehicle your ADR will recognise you as the authorised driver.

This means that, even if a thief has stolen your keys, when they move your vehicle an instant alert is triggered in the monitoring control room.

This ensures instant proactive response to any car theft, leading to most vehicles intercepted by the police or recovery team within 1-2 hours from the time of theft.

Insurers may insist that you install an S5 car tracker in Glasgow if your vehicle is valued at over £40,000. Your insurance provider will confirm this for you though.
