    How is it any different than the iPhone tracking subjection?

    BidRoad is just an app that is run on a smart phone or tablet so you would still have the same issue in the case of an abandonment or theft if the driver takes the device the app is running on with them.

    Just search Google for “truck tracking” or something similar and you will find tons of solutions like http://fleettrax.net/fleet-trackers/, http://www.trackyourtruck.com/systems/bus-and-truck-tracking, or http://www.fleetmatics.com/truck-tracking.

    I can set air-IQ if I'm parking the truck for the weekend if that truck moves it sends a text right to my phone I also use to set the speed limiter when drivers went over 76 I was notified there speed and location also my main reasoning for getting the devices is it keep track of your miles in each state for IFTA I can also shut the truck off from anywhere!

    If you totally understand, why haven't you stated how many trucks?
