And what about parental control?

Father of a teenage driver - "My wife used to wake me at midnight or later because our teenage driver wasn't home yet. She would insist I wake all of my childs friends, or drive around the city to look for them. With LockDownGPS there's no need to panic, I just take a look on the internet."

A Mother - My son borrowed the car last weekend. After setting the Speed Alert function on LockDownGPS I received a message that he was speeding down Highway 27 at 90 mph. LockDownGPS allows me to print the event so I had written proof of his speeding violation. What a surprise when I showed him and took away the car keys!"
