Study Shows Teens Engaging In More Risky Behaviors
More Teens Turning Towards Drugs & Alcohol
According to a survey conducted by The Partnership Attitude Tracking Study on behalf of Drug-Free America, teens are becoming more likely to engage in drug or alcohol experimentation during social events and situations such as parties. The study, which was acquired by real-timeGPS tracking company Tracking System Direct, also stated that overall drug and alcohol abuse among teens is on the rise after 10 consecutive years of decline.
The study focused on high school students in grades 9-12.
The statistics reported that there was an 11% increase in alcohol use in the past month among teens who were surveyed the previous year, and a 19% increase in marijuana use, the largest annual increase of usage among all other substances.
Recently, the mother of a 17-year old boy called one of our vehicle tracking experts and asked about how GPS tracking technology could help keep her teen safe. The woman explained that her son had passed the state written and behind-the-wheel driving tests flawlessly less than a year ago, but received a traffic citation for speeding last week.
Her son was clocked by a county sheriff speeding 67 mph in a 45 mph zone. The officer could have given the teen a much more severe penalty for driving 20 mph over the posted speed limit, but chose to give the kid a slight break.
After the incident, the mother began to become very concerned about the driving patterns of her teen. She did not want her son to become a statistic and became determined to find a solution to improve his driving habits.
Upon hearing a news story about how GPS trackers were helping improve teen driving safety, she realized she may have found the answer to her problem. Feeling the solution was only a mouse click away, the mother turned on her computer and began researching GPS tracking devices.
Should Parents Be Fined For Irresponsible Teen Behavior?
A New Approach To Solving Teen Driving Dangers
Any parent who has a teenager understands how stressful life can be. Teens can get themselves into an unlimited amount of trouble as potential bad influences are all around them and can shape behaviors that can last a lifetime.
So why exactly is a parent to do?
Well some states are not providing the answer to that tough question, but what they are doing is fining parents for irresponsible actions of their teens.
Currently, many school districts have been teaming up with local law enforcement and working on programs and initiatives that require parents to pay a fine if their teen skips class. Some parents are familiar with these types of measures, but now some groups are calling for parents to be fined for irresponsible teen driving habits as well.
It does not matter what statistics you read or where you get them from, their is mountains of evidence that can validate teen drivers are more likely to be involved in a motor vehicle incident than any other types of drivers. Believing parents play a significant role in a teen's driving habits, some groups believe the best way for the roads to become safer for everyone is to make parents of newly licensed drivers more accountable for their teen's driving. By requiring a teen and/or parent to be financially responsible for any traffic infractions or violations received by the teen driver, some groups believe vehicle-related fatalities in the 17-25 age group will be reduced significantly.
GPS Tracking Systems To Monitor 17,000 Pieces Of Equipment
Maricopa County Goes High-Tech With Voting
If you don't believe government officials care about your vote then you better think again. It is because of the importance of votes and ballot security that the county of Maricopa has chosen to use GPS devices to monitor voting machines and equipment during the upcoming elections. Voting machines and equipment are susceptible to tampering and theft during every election, therefore, election officials in one Arizona county have put together a plan to monitor ballot boxes, voter machines, ballot bags and other miscellaneous voting equipment via GPS tracking technology.
Election officials believe the new GPS tracking plan that will assist in the safe-keeping of voting equipment will provide a sense of confidence within voters over the electoral process.
Maricopa county election officials will debut the GPS tracking protected equipment during school district elections set to begin later this March. Once the preliminary results for the GPS tracking program are reviewed, the program will expand in full effect for the elections in May regarding sales tax.
Teen's Death Has Parents Asking For GPS Tracking Law
Teen Tracking Via GPS In Cell Phones
The saying is that there is no pain worse than that of the loss of a child. Sadly, for the parents of a teenage girl named Kelsey Smith they understand the heartbreaking feeling all too well.
Kesley was a typical teen who lived with her parents in Minnesota, but less than 10 days after her high school graduation she was abducted from a local Target parking lot. Her attacker took her from the public parking lot and then to a remote location where he raped and murdered her. The attack occurred in broad daylight.
Her body was found four days later.
The story is difficult to type, let alone think about. However, one of the more disturbing twists to the story was that when Kelsey's parents were frantically searching for their daughter they asked her cellular provider, Verizon, for access to the GPS tracking data recorded from her cell phone in hope that it would lead them to her location which was still unknown. The parents pleaded and begged for the GPS tracking data and felt that access to it could help them bring home their daughter alive and well. Verizon refused to give the parents access to the GPS system data and continued to withhold it until law enforcement forced their hand with a subpoena.
Protecting endangered animals is all part of the job description for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW). The federal agency takes multiple actions and precautions to protecting and securing the existence of wildlife and habitat in some of the most pristine environments inside of the state. What has brought attention to the agency recently is their use of GPS tracking collars that are being used to monitor the movements of an alpha male wolf in one of the only two known wolf packs existing in Oregon today.
GPS systems are becoming a more common tool among biologists to record animal movements, and that is why the ODFW are utilizing tracking system technology in their efforts to protect the nearly extinct wolf population in Oregon. What the ODFW has done so is placed a GPS tracker inside a collar on the alpha wolf of a pack known to roam a particular area in Oregon. The biologists reviewing the GPS tracking data will then plot and monitor the information to gather knowledge about the animal's movements and habits throughout the year.
