Blackline GPS announces Teenage Driver Safety Program and evolution of retail exposure

blackline-gpsSometimes a small step for technology leads to a giant leap in peace of mind. Witness the advent of GPS-related location services - a technology that is revolutionizing the way we stay connected.

In concert with Escort Inc., Blackline GPS has developed a line of products that are blazing a trail in personal and vehicle safety. With strong corporate partnerships, Blackline is proud to announce that they have gained access to coveted retail institutions such as Fry’s Electronics, Ultimate Electronics, the Source, Future Shop, Sears, and Al & Eds to name a few. They have also partnered with the American Red Cross to illustrate their commitment to community stewardship and showcase the incredible capabilities of their tracking and monitoring systems for emergency situations.

NEW at CES: Driver’s Report Card Program

A new development from Blackline GPS is at the forefront of innovation. Blackline GPS powers the Escort Entourage CIS, Escort’s signature tracking product and we are proud to introduce the breakthrough release of the Driver’s Report Card Program.  Stay connected with your teenage driver in the same fashion that parents have been doing for decades – a report card.

Monitor average speed, amount of time driven, excessive speeding, curfews and more with the report card linked to a personalized driver identity provided by a unique key fob.

This proprietary software allows the user to issue reports on driving history as well as monitor the location of your young drivers.

According to the National Safety Council, the leading cause of fatality among teenagers is traffic accidents due to speed. Blackline GPS and Escort are both committed to promoting safe driving habits for our teenagers.

With the Escort Entourage CIS product, customers are eligible for insurance discounts. Further information can be found here.
