A system for tracking a vehicle is provided. Such a system comprises a tracking
device including a location-determining apparatus configured to determine a location,
a signaling device operably engaged with the location-determining apparatus and
adapted to transmit a signal, including a location signal corresponding to the
location, to a station remotely disposed with respect to the location-determining
apparatus, and a securing apparatus operably engaged with the location determining
apparatus and adapted to secure the location-determining apparatus to the vehicle
while the vehicle is moving. A deployment vehicle is configured to transport the
tracking device and deploy the tracking device onto the vehicle so as to thereby
allow the securing apparatus to secure the tracking device to the vehicle such
that the vehicle can be remotely tracked from the station in response to the location
signal. An associated device and method are also provided.
