but if she gets lost for hours at a time and can't operate a cell phone, I'd say it's been real lucky she HASN'T had an accident so far. Get your mother off the streets before she kills herself or someone else. Can't you or your siblings drive her? She'll get where she's going, and your minds will be put at ease.

Hi. I'm pretty desperate. I've been looking for a real-time gps device that can help my siblings and I locate my mother's car when she gets lost driving. (She occassionally loses her way and disappears for hours at a time.) She does not suffer from dimensia, nor has she ever caused a traffic accident, but when she is expected somewhere at 3 p.m. and doesn't arrive until 9 p.m., we naturally assume the worst.
What we'd like is a simple device that we can access remotely when she is missing, that will tell us her location in real time, and that SHE does not have to operate. (She has difficulty operating a cell phone.)
We'd like to spend under $400.
Any recommendations?
