Where I live car insurance is very comprehensive and one of biggest reasons why people insure their cars is as protection for theft.<p>For the most popular cars, the ones at higher risk of being stolen, tracking is mandatory. All insurance companies require it, otherwise they won&#x27;t insure your car.<p>So, with the justification of a higher risk and by acting in a coordinated manner, peruvian insurance companies (4 which control the market) have effectively deployed a vast tracking network.<p>Don&#x27;t know if something similar could happen in the US, there are too many insurance companies as to easily establish common policies across the board and I suspect that it would be harder to come up with a credible justification for it.
