Tips for safe and enjoyable journey.

Here are some guidelines to make confident you and your vehicle are geared up for the trip.

• Before you hit the road, have your vehicle inspected. A basic inspection is not very expensive and will cover the brakes, tires, suspension, lights, cooling system, and other basic drive train components

• Make sure your tire pressure before you leave on a road trip. Most tires require between 30-32psi.

• Pack an emergency kit with you. A good emergency kit should include a flashlight, a first aid kit, jumper cables, gloves, rope, and tire inflator.

• Always bring extra water. Although you may be travelling on major roads, a flat tire or breakdown can occur miles from the nearest exit.

• If you've never changed a flat tire, perhaps you should try it in the comfort of your own driveway a few days before you head out on your trip.

• While on the road, try to take a 15 minute break every 2 hours.

• Pack plenty of entertainment for children. Travel toys and games can help pass the time.

• Whenever you travel make sure that everyone has proper identification and required documentation.

A road trip can be a fun experience. Follow these tips to make sure it's a safe and enjoyable journey.

TrackMeLap launched at International Security National Resilience Exhibition & Conference in London

The outstanding versatility and performance of Tramigo's T22 Personal Asset Tracking Device has been combined with a little creative thinking, by one of Tramigo's partners in the UK, to create TrackMeLap, a laptop carrier and briefcase with in-built tracking and listening capabilities.

The increasing trend for the theft and loss of laptop computers is on a steep rise. The effects are ball too obvious, not just in financial terms or inconvenience, but the loss and compromising of the security of the data held therein can cause untold damage to an organization and its reputation.

It is a phenomenon that is of increasing concern not only to police, security agencies and governments, but industry and commerce too.

TrackMeLap (TML) has been designed to specifically combat these widespread thefts and losses. The T22 Tracking Device is cleverly hidden within the framework of the case, out of sight of the 'thief', but easily accessible to the owner. The silent operation of the Tracker and its built-in back-up battery, make it the ideal unit for not alerting the perpetrator to the tracking and recovery of the valuable assets it is protecting.

Even if a police report is filed, how is the physical location of the lost or stolen laptop, documents or data discovered? As we all know it isn't! That's where TrackMeLap comes into play and is the key to locating and recovering that valuable laptop, briefcase, critical documents and data. The TML Unit provides both the ability to track the lost or stolen asset and present its every movement and location via street level mapping, ahile also acting as a personal protection/lone worker security device. The unit can even open a one way voice listening facility to allow you to hear the perpetrators every conversation until such time as the asset is recovered.

TrackMeLap comes with the additional benefit of providing the carrier/user with a personal distress incident panic alert button, which when activated sends location and status information to a host PC or security department and also sends an immediate text message alert to pre-designated mobile phones authorized by the unit's owner.
