You can't be in the car any more — but you can carry on helping. Every journey and every speeding event, laid out for both of you, so you can both see when a one-off is turning into a habit — and you're not carrying the worry on your own.
Lifetime miles tracked by Oculamor
Oculamor is a small device that plugs into your new driver's car and shows your family every journey, speeding event and the car's live location — transparently, so they open the same journeys you do. It costs from £7.99/month per vehicle plus a one-time £30 device. No contract — cancel anytime.
If something changed in how they were driving, you'd want to know before someone else told you.

The same views your family will use — shown here with our demo family's data.
Every trip is mapped end to end and coloured against the limit for that road — green where it was calm, amber and red where it wasn't. You see exactly where a journey got quick, without asking a single question.
The driving profile plots speed against the limit for the entire journey, with over-limit stretches shaded and harsh acceleration flagged. It turns “were you speeding?” into a conversation about one specific minute of one specific road.
Every journey gets a 0–100 score with sub-scores for speed, braking and acceleration — and higher-risk trips are flagged clearly. Reviewing scores together turns monitoring into coaching, and improvement into something you can both see.
The Oculamor tracker plugs into the car's OBD-II port in under two minutes. Every car made since 2004 has one. No wiring, no mechanic, no insurance policy involved.
Trips, speeding events and location appear in the family dashboard as they happen. It works independently of the driver's phone — nothing for them to install or remember.
Look at the journeys that matter, agree what counts as concerning, and watch trends improve week by week as experience grows.
“This app is incredibly helpful for making sure my son is safe on the roads… The driving score along with the fuel cost per trip gives you a pretty good idea of how sensible he's being on the road.”

Oculamor works best introduced openly, with expectations agreed together before the first monitored drive:
Your young driver opens the same journeys you do. The purpose is safer independence and gradually earned trust — not permanent supervision, and never covert surveillance of an adult child.
Everything a family needs to turn journey data into better conversations.
See when and where speeding happened against mapped limits and your configured alert thresholds — with the whole journey around it, not just an alert.
Every trip with its route, timings and stops. Review the journeys that matter and skip the ones that don't.
Know the car arrived safely without the 'text me when you get there' routine. Location updates live while the vehicle is being driven.
One event might be a mistake. A repeated pattern needs a conversation. Trends make the difference obvious.
Speed and disconnection alerts you configure yourself — so you hear about what you agreed matters, not every firm brake.
Your young driver opens the same journeys you do. Built for open family use, not covert surveillance.
Phone-based tracking follows a phone — which can be switched off, left behind or uninstalled. Oculamor plugs into the car itself.
The tracker is powered by the car's diagnostic port. If it's unplugged, it raises a power-cut alarm and a tamper alert appears in your dashboard — and you can switch on an email for it too.
The tracker reports over its own mobile connection, independently of the driver's phone. There's no app to delete, no permission to revoke and no battery to run flat.
It records the vehicle while it's being driven — not messages, browsing or where they are on foot. That's what makes it something you can introduce openly.
In an independent 2026 randomised trial of 240 US parent–teen pairs, the group receiving driving feedback plus structured parent communication training had a 32% lower rate of recorded risky-driving events than the monitoring-only group. It also spent about 46% less of its mileage speeding. Feedback alone reduced speeding mileage too, but did not significantly reduce the overall risky-event rate.
The study involved drivers aged 16–17 who had received a traffic violation. It did not test Oculamor and did not measure crashes, injuries or Oculamor customer outcomes. Its findings support the broader principle behind Oculamor: useful driving information can help families identify risky patterns and have more constructive conversations.
