Front and rear dash cam and car tracker combo, the smart way to secure your vehicle

Combining a dashcam with a GPS car tracker is one of the most popular vehicle security upgrades among UK drivers who have researched their options. The dashcam provides evidence; the tracker provides recovery capability. LockCar’s integrated approach takes this a step further, adding a hardwired relay immobiliser that provides the prevention layer neither a dashcam nor a tracker can deliver, in a single professionally installed unit.

Why drivers combine dashcam and tracker

A dashcam provides video evidence of accidents and theft attempts. A GPS tracker provides location data after theft. Together they address two of the three concerns that drive aftermarket vehicle security purchases: evidence and recovery. The third concern, prevention, is addressed only by a relay immobiliser.

Many UK drivers fit a dashcam and a tracker from different suppliers, resulting in two separate devices, two separate apps, two installation appointments, and potentially two separate subscriptions. LockCar One Plus replaces this combination with a single device, a single app, and a single installation, at a combined cost typically lower than two separate quality devices.

Adding prevention to the combination

The most significant limitation of the dashcam-plus-tracker combination is that neither device prevents theft. The dashcam records the relay attack. The tracker locates the vehicle after theft. In neither case is the theft prevented.

LockCar One Plus adds the relay immobiliser to the dashcam and tracker combination. The relay break physically prevents engine start after a relay attack. If the attack succeeds in unlocking the car, the engine will not start. No tracking or evidence capture is needed because no theft has occurred. The immobiliser is the prevention layer that transforms the combination from a reactive security system into a proactive one.
