Who Cares About Teenage Driving?
Always a topical subject, but
does anyone care enough to do something practical about it?
Teen driver management isn't just about boy-racers and high speed
disasters its something that every parent has or will grapple with
at some stage.
At last,
GPS Training Wheels is
something practical to benefit both teens and their parents because
as we all know this is about a lot more than just kids driving cars.
For teenagers, getting a drivers
license is a rite of passage to being an adult. It means freedom at
last!
For Teenagers
Here I Am can mean:
- Being able to borrow the family
car because you can give your parents peace of mind
- Having a great starting point when
negotiating finance for your own set of wheels
- Protecting your own car against
theft
For parents, staying involved
with your teenage driver to teach skills and how to handle risk,
seems nearly impossible. Once behind the wheel, it can seem like
“anything goes”.
For Parents Here
I Am can mean:
- Being proactive about helping your
teenager manage their driving, especially their speed
- Staying involved so your teenager
respects the boundaries you’ve both agreed
- Giving
them more freedom because you know where they are
GPS location
technology has never been easier. If you have teenage drivers, read on:
With Here I Am you can:
- Manage driving speed from your
computer,
PDA or cell phone. If speed limits are broken, you can receive an
email, text or phone call in minutes. Then you choose what to
do.
- Manage boundaries so your
teenagers stick to agreed geographical areas. If they drive further than agreed, you can receive an email, text or phone call.
Then you choose what to do.
- Manage teenage friends driving
with portable units. Help keep your teenagers and their friends
safer when out in their vehicle.
- Reduce peer pressure to show off in the car by driving too fast.
It gives your teenager a reason to do the right thing in front of
friends.
- Get peace of mind and know where
your teenagers are when out in the car. Our high quality mapping
available to your computer or PDA lets you see their driving and speed
history. Use this as a way of working on their driving skills.
How Speed Management
Works:
You can view trip history and instantly
see when a vehicle has been speeding by the colour of the trail
on screen. Red arrows indicate the speed limit has been exceeded
by more than 10%. The same information is available as a report or
can be imported
into a spreadsheet or database for further analysis.
Importantly our system can also generate email and txt
message alerts sent direct to you and/or the driver if the speed
limit is exceeded by more than 15% of the speed limit for the
section of the road being driven.
Example: For driving in town with a 50km limit an alert will be
generated if the speed exceeds57.5km/h however when driving through
a 70km zone an alert will not be triggered until exceeding 80.5 km/h
or 115 km/h for the open road.
