A geofence is a technology that makes use of location data to set up an invisible barrier in the real world.
Often the technology uses GPS, but it can also use other data signals such as cellular, WiFi or RFID.
You can't see or feel anything when you pass through a geofence, but if you are carrying a connected device, it will send out a signal that you have crossed the electronic boundary.

Aint seen nothin yet.
My Garmin GPS already has the database built in. Knows the speed limits everywhere I go. All that’s needed is a link to the engine management computer and voila!
There’s reason why I drive 20-year-old cars.
Yup, appears you are right. I should have said ‘stolen’ because thieves know quality and resale value.
Not for much longer. Once people find out what a hand grenade these new turbocharged micro-engines are. And I've been a Ford guy all my life.
Forget Out Running Dogs.
They need to develop a vehicle that automatically speeds up if you’re in the left lane and driving 20 MPH below the speed limit.
Will make their older cars keep their value...
Just another reason why I’m nursing my ‘07 F150.
They want total control over everything.
