Mandatory GPS tracking involves using GPS technology in all vehicles to monitor driving behavior and improve road safety. Proponents argue that it enhances road safety and reduces accidents by monitoring and correcting dangerous driving behaviors. Opponents argue that it infringes on personal privacy and could lead to government overreach and misuse of data.

No, and in the interest of minimizing tyranny, I advocate a referendum on jailing anyone who proposes or supports this. Better yet, I would voluntarily contribute to a crowdfunding effort to launch them all into the sun.
@B2LYYGR3mos3MO
No, and it should be illegal to track any vehicle without its owner's consent.
@9VGR4J97mos7MO
I would say for anyone caught violating traffic regulations to begin with. If they prove over a few years they can be trusted remove it. Otherwise if its a repeat offender hit them with a table.
@9T6K9638mos8MO
They should enforce this practice on individuals reported for reckless driving or with a history of traffic tickets.
@9SLJBJV8mos8MO
Yes, but also for safety reasons. How many vehicles go missing and are never found.
@9RZPX679mos9MO
no this is a major invasion of privacy, any government that introduces this should be voted into the ground
@B4SXKQ91wk1W
No, unless the driver is repeatedly breaking the law and driving dangerously - then they should have a probation period similar to DUI blow boxes
@B4KJ9LB3wks3W
In the case of frequent offenders, yes. It should be up to the individual owner of the vehicles for everyone else. There are situations where this kind of monitoring would be beneficial, like commercial vehicles for example.
@8TTXN2C 2mos2MO
Not government mandated, more just an app that people can use to report bad drivers, maybe the local insurance companies can use it.
@B3DDM482mos2MO
Yes, but only for the those that have been convicted of a major traffic offence
@B3CPZL72mos2MO
Should the french president revolution in based watch on behavioral is victims supports by the armor police watch then courts available on footages issues by new Zealand labour party leader making others and the community safe
@B39TZHC2mos2MO
Only on those that get their license later in life and have not been driving IN CANADA since the age of 16
@B2CMT6Q 4mos4MO
This should only be enforced on individuals who have a history of violating traffic safety laws.
@B29WGP94mos4MO
Yes, but primarily for recovering lost vehicles and tracking vehicles involved in active investigations
@B29H2J54mos4MO
Yes, but only for data collection; traffic violations should not be punished without a police officer witnessing the event in person.
@B23YN6L5mos5MO
To be honest, the idea would be smart. But too much data to go over and consume, along with the fact that this will not put a stop to sloppy driving.
@B23CRQ35mos5MO
No, we should implement a staffed Road Safety Enforcement Service instead.
@9ZGC8TGIndependent6mos6MO
No, but if the individual has recently been charged with a DUI or a driving- related issue.
@9WPPMKFRhinoceros6mos6MO
No, we need to respect the privacy of others, and we already have dashcam to show how drivers are driving.
@9W9YG5K6mos6MO
The government should legislate a law that prohibits anyone from tracking any vehicle not reported stolen. The privacy of vehicle owners must not be violated. GPS tracking should only be used on stolen vehicles for the purpose of returning them to their rightful owners, and only with permission of the owners.
@9V36WR97mos7MO
depending on your job or if you have a criminal record
@9TYSP557mos7MO
NO
I tried a app for my insurance company, 1 it showed me on a service road with a speed limit of 50, i was on a freeway with a speed limit of 100.
2 some people do not speed up enough when they merge on a freeway because they dont want to lose points for acceleration on their insurance gps app.
@9RBVFQQ9mos9MO
No, this should only be done to vehicles intended solely for government use.
@9MKYHZ712mos12MO
No, however allow insurance companies to give the option of a GPS device to reduce insurance premiums
@9STG5TR8mos8MO
that sounds like a malfunction waiting to happen and may not work
