What is an S5 Tracker?

14.01.25 04:43 PM Comment(s) By Stuart McLean

An S5 insurance tracker is a vehicle tracking system that meets the criteria set by Thatcham Research for an S5 security standard. Thatcham Research is an organization in the UK that sets safety and security standards for vehicles and their components. S5 trackers are typically used for high-value or high-performance vehicles and are often required by insurance companies to mitigate the risk of theft.

Key Features of an S5 Insurance Tracker:

  1. GPS Tracking: Real-time location tracking using GPS technology.
  2. Driver Recognition: Comes with an ID tag or a similar system to verify the authorized driver.
  3. 24/7 Monitoring: Usually connected to a secure monitoring center that can notify the vehicle owner and the police if unauthorized movement is detected.
  4. Remote Immobilization: The ability to remotely disable the vehicle in case of theft.
  5. Tamper Alerts: Alerts are triggered if the system is tampered with or the vehicle is moved without authorization.
  6. Geofencing: Creates virtual boundaries, and the system alerts the owner if the vehicle leaves a pre-defined area.

S5 or Insurance approved trackers are designed to provide enhanced security and can often help reduce insurance premiums or even secure an insurance policy due to the lower risk of theft.
