Connecticut Supreme Court Affirms Bans on GPS Fines
The Connecticut Supreme Court on Monday upheld the state's ban on Acme Rent-A-Car's use of a global positioning satellite system to track customers and fine them $150 for speeding. According to the state's Consumer Protection Department, Acme failed to warn customers of the fines they would face if the system showed they were speeding. Acme also automatically debited consumers' bank accounts or credit cards without notice.
