Does the US law prohibit a person from planting a GPS tracking device on someone else, or otherwise using a GPS tracking device, to track the location of someone else without the latter's consent?
You attempt to track a boyfriend, girlfriend or significant other in their own carAs of now, here's what private citizens need to know about GPS tracking and the law:It's generally legal to use a GPS tracking device if:You or your organization own the vehicle or asset to be tracked. You or your organization own the asset that might be taken without your permission. Your children (under 18 years old) are the focus of the tracking. You are tracking a car or asset for the purpose of legal repossession in the event of a default on a loan. It's generally illegal to use a GPS tracking device if:You are not the owner of the car and do not have the legal right to track itYou attempt to track a boyfriend, girlfriend or significant other in their own carFor police and licensed private investigatorsYou should know that the laws governing GPS tracking by government agents, police or private citizens are not definitive. The Fourth Amendment and other state and federal laws grant United States residents certain protections to their privacy, including strict limits on illegal search and seizure. But there's nothing in the Constitution that specifically addresses GPS tracking technology – or many other forms of electronic surveillance. The Supreme Court and several lower courts issued rulings on GPS in 2012, but those decisions addressed narrow uses of the technology by police and employers, respectively. The courts didn't address the use of GPS tracking devices by private citizens or private investigators. With its recent ruling on GPS tracking by police, the Supreme Court left many questions unanswered. But the justices signaled that they were ready to delve more deeply into electronic surveillance issues. Visit us at LoneStar Tracking GPS Vehicle Tracking Solutions
Why do my hazard lights work, but not my turn signals?
Hazard lights and turn signals use the same bulb, so it is not the bulb, the lamp, or the cables to them. Turn signals only work when the ignition is on; hazard lights work whether the ignition is on or not. The two systems have separate power supplies, so they have separate fuses. You may have a blown fuse.Different vehicles use different circuits, and it is not possible to accurately diagnose the fault with the small amount of information provided. You need a circuit diagram and a voltmeter, and a continuity tester. First locate and test the turn signal fuse. Do you have voltage to and from the turn signal switch?The hazard light switch is not a simple on/off switch. In the “on” position, a fused battery feed connects to left and right turn signal. In the “off” position, the left turn switch wire is connected to the left turn lamp and the right turn switch wire is connected to the right turn lamp, so there are 3 inputs and 2 outputs.The fault could be a fuse, turn signal switch, hazard switch, flasher unit, or a broken wire or connection.
What is a method to start a car after running out of gas?
OP: “What is a method to start a car after running out of gas?”Read your Owner’s manual.A) Get fresh gasoline. Use a proper filling can certified for holding petroleum products.B) Fill at least 5 litres into the tank.C) Give the gas time to trickle down to the bottom of the tank where the fuel pickup (intake) is.Some fuel pumps are submerged in petroleum to keep them cool.After waiting a minute, then turn the key to “on” you should hear the fuel pump go “Buzzt” as the pressure is built up in the fuel lines going to the engine. Once the pressure goes above a set value (20 or 35 psi), then it shuts off.turn the car to off again, the fuel pump is now primed.Now change , and start like normal.You should have enough fuel to get to the nearest fuel stop. Fill it to 1/2 tankful only.Then when you get home , fill with your regular fuel.Watch the fuel empty sign ,and the warning buzzer!It means fill it up within 100 km, so you were warned long ahead, but you ignored the warning. Doh!Don’t do this too often otherwise fuel pumps fail, and other parts wear a lot harder without the fuel to lubricate the system.If you are in Orange County, California; you may wish to phone a friend to bring you some gasoline, since it is those very same ‘friends’ that will expect you to have a car well gassed up when they need a lift. If they politely excuse that they can’t help, you know who to give lifts to when they want a ride (siblings excepted)
