The first reported car theft happened in 1896. I wasn’t aware they even had cars back in 1896, but I’m sure they were valuable property. Cars today are still very valuable and a big target for theft. It is a big business to steal a car and strip down the parts to sell. In order to better protect their cars, many people invest in car alarm systems. Most car alarms today are very affordable, especially when you consider the value of what you are protecting with your car alarm. One of the newer technologies in car alarms is the pager car alarm.

Having a pager car alarm is handy because it has dual purposes. It is a clicker that you can put on your key chain. You use the same device when you want to quickly unlock your car or open your trunk. A pager car alarm could save you a lot of aggravation because if the alarm is tripped on your car, you can hit a button and shut off the engine. A thief can’t get your car very far if they can’t get it to run. Pager car alarms are some of the most effective ways to fight car theft. They are becoming more popular and sometimes you find them standard on certain types of new cars.

What is GPS?

GPS stands for Global Positioning System. High above us, there are a group of 24 satellites orbiting the earth constantly providing information to tell us the map location (latitude and longitude) of a car or other vehicle. It also tells us how fast the vehicle is traveling and in what direction.
