midas Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) so he switched off the engine via satellite. Learn something new every day. This is a good option to have if it's true. I would regard that kind of device is essential when dealing with total strangers. I wonder how much it costs? At least the 2000 baht deposit (which won’t be returned to the renter ) will partly offset the cost of that device Edited May 16, 2016 by midas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujayujay Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 To stop the Engine via GPS Sattelite is usual, if the Car have a Navi or a Single GPS Transponder installed. Stop the Car thru Smartphone or Computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop the Car thru Smartphone or Computer. at least that explains the cause of the many weird accidents in Thailand. While driving the car was turned off.
