There is a cool gadget a www.gpsteentracking.com that allows parents to monitor their teens vehicle speed or whereabouts via the internet. It gives real time gps results every 1, 2 or 5 seconds. There is a similar product at www.ggppss.com . It is geared more on the tracking of commercial vehicles. I like the pert of monitoring a teens speed more so that the location. Either way its a cool product
