redial 81 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I am told some of these maggots have tracking devices about the size of a fag packet that they attach to the underside of vehicles of known hunt supporters so they can find the meet. I would think such a device costs a fair bit so its worth checking your vehicles and if you find one put it on the back of the fire. Who funds them ? Yours in sport, 2 Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Yep, such a device has been used in the North of Ireland and they'll be using drones soon too so be prepared. If anyone does find such a device on their vehicle can I suggest seeing your local long distance lorry driver for help. 4 Quote Link to post
paulus 26 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Tracking a vehicle without the driver's consent is illegal, whether for business purposes or not. The reason is because linking data to an individual person falls under the Data Protection Act 1998, which determines the rules for the collection, use and sharing of an individual's information. The implications of using telematics or vehicle tracking systems without someone’s consent are considerable and constitutes an infringement of personal liberties. Covert Tracking DevicesThere is a growing market for covert tracking devices, designed to secretly monitor a vehicle's movements.Covert GPS tracking systems are long-life battery operated devices attached to the underside of a vehicle using magnets. These devices are not practical as long-term security devices for the prevention of theft, and are illegal for private use in the UK. Quote Link to post
R.A.W 1,987 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Half of them won't buy a bar of soap............................. . There must be a device to track that tracker so let all the sabs spend a load of money on them and think they're the best thing since black balaclava's then use them to your advantage. 2 Quote Link to post
francolin 449 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 how about if you find a tracker leave it in place,go to a meet well out the way and when the owners follow make sure theres a good set of young men around to return the device ,and no hounds present ,just a thought. 6 Quote Link to post

cragman 2,763 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Paulus, does all that data stuff apply to work vehicles? We've just had trackers fitted to our vans! It's murder, all the lads are sat around waiting for finishing time so they can go home without getting into trouble for an early dart. Where is that info taken from?

They all ready have been RAW, it will be a bolt on in the company handbook, the contract is ambiguous as possible these days for most drivers with just reference made to terms and conditions, as long as 3 months notice is given and the request is deemed / prooved beneficial to all parties then there's not a lot can be done...rightly or wrongly that's the way it is.

Hardfeather 56 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 If they want to find you they'll do as they've done for decades and sit outside the kennels in the morning then follw you, what worries me in the future is the antis that will walk amongst us and befreind you ;( Quote Link to post
stando 177 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 They sure have a lot of kit, drones, gps, radio's, video, it's nothing new really, A lot of pack's look out in the morning on a hunting day to see them sat at a road end and then all they have to do is follow the trailer The "weasle's" are more switched on to the law than most think, they try everything to get the old bill involved,....the latest one seem's to be quad bikes :laugh: :laugh: Quote Link to post
3175darren 1,100 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I heard with the drones they can only fly them over ground where have been given authority to do so, that should be easy to stop,other than that buy a scanner find there frequency and fly the f***er yourself,also if you see it being done, demand a copy of all footage containing your image,but the collection of data all falls under RIPPER which is a night mare act, to negotiate,you could put a sign up at your meeting place, along the lines of no person within this hunt meet, give's any lawful authority to any person outside the hunt membership,to capture images of them,get all the members to sign the poster,make a couple of copies magnetic to stick on the vehicle,and you never know,that could cause a bit of fun with the bobbies, Quote Link to post
