Overview
Welcome to TrackRoad GPS TrackRoad GPS offers GPS services for virtually any kind
of vehicle for both personal and commercial usage. Whether it is to better inform you
of where your vehicle is located, or to use on your next trip, Our GPS devices are
designed to be very thorough and make sure you are well informed of your vehicles at
every moment. From car theft to business travel if anything happens along the way
you will be well informed as it happens, live, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We have
broken down our GPS service into the following categories for your benefit:
GPS for Fleets
Regardless of the nature of your fleet vehicles, whether they consist of public buses
delivery trucks, or any other type of service vehicles, TrackRoad GPS systems can
ensure that your vehicles, your employees, and your investment are all protected.
There are many ways in which TrackRoad GPS can protect your fleet:
Vehicle positioning:
You can know, with complete certainty, the location of any of the
vehicles in your fleet. Further, you will be able to track whether your employees are
arriving and departing on schedule, as well as whether any of your vehicles are
exceeding posted speed limits.
Engine idling:
Needless idling can signal a waste of time, a waste of gas, and a waste of
money! It can also lead to excessive carbon emissions. We all want to minimize our
carbon footprint as well as our bottom line. This preventative measure can ensure that
idle time is kept to a minimum.
Vehicle maintenance:
TrackRoad GPS can protect not only the life of your vehicles,
but also the safety of your employees with this important vehicle maintenance feature.

GPS for Cars
There are many reasons why smart consumers feel compelled to add the TrackRoad
GPS system to their cars, motorcycles, and other vehicles. Here are three of the most
popular reasons:
1. Theft recovery:
If you have a TrackRoad GPS system installed in your vehicle, then
your vehicle can be tracked down. Period. It doesn’t matter if your vehicle has been
shut down or turned off, your vehicle can be found and recovered with TrackRoad.
2. Tracking family members:
A TrackRoad GPS system can help consumers to track
their family members in a number of ways. For example, the system can track how
often a vehicle arrives at a particular destination, or a vehicle’s movement in a given
period of time. With TrackRoad, no longer will you need to worry over the
whereabouts of your elderly parents or rebellious teenagers!
3. Preventing reckless and dangerous teenage driving:
With a TrackRoad GPS
system in your teenager’s car, your teens will know that mom and dad are watching
them at all times. If you’re teen knows that you are aware of speed, distance, and
destinations, he or she will be more likely to behave like perfect angels rather than
speed demons!
Many TrackRoad GPS customers rely on the information TrackRoad GPS provides
them in their daily lives to make better and smarter choices. For instance, you might be
able to find a
shorter route to work every day, which saves you fuel, and saves you
money! Others have found that installing this system saves them money in other ways,
like lower prices for car insurance. Ultimately, though, most TrackRoad GPS customers
would cite peace of mind as the greatest benefit to this technology.
