WHY A CAR TRACKER IN YORKSHIRE?

The latest figures on national car crime are very concerning, as West Yorkshire is now the third-worst region for car theft.

According to RAC, this is only getting worse, as there has been a staggering 57% rise in reported car theft in the last few years, from 3,561 in 2013 to 5,597 last year.

This has caused huge unease amongst motorists and insurance providers alike; leading to insurers asking motorists to take further steps in protecting their vehicles.

Over the past 2 years, it is likely that you have been asked by your insurance provider to install a Thatcham approved car tracker, in line with your new insurance policy.

Due to the effectiveness of these stolen vehicle recovery trackers, many insurers are offering a reduction in your policy cost if you comply with this. However, what is now becoming more common is that insurance companies will simply not insure you for theft without a tracker installed.

The good news here is that these Insurance approved car trackers are incredibly effective in preventing and recovering stolen cars.

This is due to the high quantity of instant alerts set up to detect anyone interfering with your vehicle. These alerts are picked up by the 24/7 monitoring control room, which react immediately by contacting both you and the police in the event of a theft.

BEST CAT S5 CAR TRACKERS IN YORKSHIRE

 

Having a CAT S5 car Tracker in Yorkshire will not only provide the highest level of security for your vehicle but may mean a significant reduction in your insurance policy, meaning that you could even save money in the long run.

CAT S5 vehicle trackers are typically only required under specific circumstances, usually when the vehicle is of a certain value and/or it is used in an area with a high car crime rate. Many drivers prefer the peace of mind that they bring due to the exceptionally high recovery rate.

The most popular S5 tracking device is currently the ScorpionTrack S5. The ScorpionTrack S5 has an Automatic Driver Recognition System that is controlled through a small fob. Your fob automatically recognises you as the authorised driver, protecting you against key theft and relay attack.

If you are unsure which device you require, speak to your insurers to see if they can offer some further guidance. It's important to ensure that you have instructed the correct category to be installed, as the wrong one could mean that your insurance is invalidated. They can be frustratingly vague here, but if they do not specify a category then the S7 tracking device will be more than suitable.

This is the entry-level Thatcham approved category and offers 24/7 control room monitoring in the event of a theft.

Fitting an S7 car tracker in Yorkshire is still the most cost-effective option.
