A tracker won't stop scum car-jacking a nice motor, raiding a post office five minutes later, then torching the car

Now a mandatory 10 year sentence for any car related crime - that might have an effect!!

RAC Trackstar has a Panic option, when activated it will contact RAC HQ and notify them of your car's position via GPS/GSM.

This a handy thing if your worried about it happening while your in it.

I don't think a crook worth his salt would nick a motor to use immediatly on a post office job - would you?? Those kinda things take a little planning.

The key to successful car recovery is speed. RAC Trackstar has the unique ability to instantly pinpoint the exact location of a stolen car. This ability has other applications to help protect you and your car. RAC Trackstar can be used to instantly alert the emergency services in an accident, or the RAC in case of a breakdown.
