Indeed! Bring it on I say, nothing to hide here. Maybe insurance premiums
will stabilise too. As for my civil liberties I can still picnic, protest
(should the need ever take me) and have a life so WTF does it have to do
with effecting my liberty? For me they can hook the cars up to it to prevent
speeding in areas of high accidents.. hell do it everywhere, sooner the
better.

If the authorities suspect I was worthy of "tracking" then with the relevant
authorisations they can already, and have for some time been tracking
vehicles.... nothing new there.

Does the OP carry a mobile phone I wonder... or use the internet for
communications?

And with frightening ease can _many_ authorities, not only Police, get
an order, usually via the phone with paperwork to follow.

Can't see the point of all this high tech surveillance miself. Anyone
wanting to know where I am, where I've been, where I'm going, who I
talk to, what I say, what I drank, where I fell over need only ask
Charlotte...

Cheap, easy, less paperwork.
