Of course if my phone is switched on and I go missing, then it's possible to find me
You think I'd leave the phone near your body?

They do better for the car to limit the power output and speed. But that doesn’t sell cars.

It would certainly help prevent instances like this.

There was a nasty on just outside Stirling as well, not that long ago.

You are correct, as already stated we are hearing 2-3 hand, but if the story is correct the wife didn't know anything about it, until he got home, we are led to believe it was the iPhone but as I'm typing this, I now wonder if as you say they found the car abandoned & they used the iPhone tracking to put him at the crash site? If so I'll remove my praise, they aren't as clever as I gave them credit for.
Either way it's a drink driver off the road for a period of time, although I suspect it will not have taught him a lesson.

I was reading about the cross bow killer in wales.
He was grassed up by his Volvo gps system. Which records everywhere you have been. It’s amazing what information is recorded without your knowledge.

Thought is was a discovery?
There's a thread somewhere on here about it with a link to a copper explaining how they could see every door opening etc, I'll have a search.

Been listening to the podcast on BBC Sounds about this, it was a Discovery that was torched, but the Police got the telematics from JLR, and it did give a full time line of every thing the car did, and where it went, it uploaded the GPS data to the cloud for JLR

It was once said that professional drivers were the best when driving privately because they rely on a licence for their job so don't risk iffy behaviour.
Obviously that's not true because if excessive hardship arguments. Aiui they are actually being misapplied in favour of motorists and a lot are driving who shouldn't have had a successful excessive hardship plea. Imho it should be very closely defined and retrospectively applied. We need this to end.

Accident alerts are turned off on both my iPhone and Garmin. However if my car senses that it’s had a crash it will call for help through Ford with its location. The operator can talk to me and check whether it’s genuine or not, I suspect that if I didn’t respond to the operator they’d escalate it to the emergency services. There’s also an SOS button that I can press to alert them.
