“How’s My Driving?”

At some point or another, we’ve all been a victim of one of those commercial service vehicles with the bumper sticker that reads, “How’s My Driving?”

Normally we don’t pay too much attention to the driving behaviors of these commercial vehicles until we get stuck behind one of them, usually in a one-lane stretch of road. We want to punch the gas pedal and pass them up, but we often don’t because of the insistent fear that we’ll end up in a head-on collision with an oncoming car on the opposite side of traffic… or because our cars don’t have the horsepower to do so.

The United States vs. Antoine Jones

On November 8, 2011, the Supreme Court listened and responded to oral arguments from both sides in a landmark case, which would have determined whether police and law enforcement agencies would be able to monitor suspected criminals with covert GPS tracking devices without having to obtain a warrant.

The case involved a suspected cocaine trafficker in the Washington, D.C. area, whose movements were monitored 24/7 over a 28 day period without a warrant by the FBI and local police investigators. Some of the information obtained from the GPS tracker was used to convict Antoine Jones of conspiracy to distribute cocaine, which was later overturned by a lower circuit appeals court.

GPS Device Tracks Down ‘Sin Bad’

The Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday that Sherburne County investigators did not violate the Constitution when they attached a GPS tracker to a burglary suspect’s work vehicle and used it to track him to a burglary scene.

Deputies used the GPS tracking device to track the suspect, Sin Santo Bad, to a residential house as he was cleaning out a safe.

Sin Santo Bad was convicted of first-degree burglary and sentenced to 11 years in prison. Bad appealed the conviction, contending that placing the GPS tracker on a truck he used at work constituted an illegal search, and in direct violation of his Fourth Amendment rights. Bad’s attorneys requested that the evidence investigators obtained after his arrest should be suppressed.

Stolen Taxicab Tracked in Denver

Tracking Burglars Through GPS

The City of Santa Fe, NM introduced a new system designed to track convicted burglars by utilizing GPS devices rather than putting them in jail. The Santa Fe Police began tracking the first offender last week. This new program will start with just five GPS tracking devices in order to gauge its effectiveness and ability to collect data.

According to a report from ABC News, Santa Fe Police Capt. Aric Wheeler, said the idea for the program originated as an alternative to repetitive incarceration, which can get pretty expensive for taxpayers. They also found that jail time did very little to deter these repeat offenders from committing more burglaries.
