　　Car Thieves could Be Stopped Remotely

　　Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in a nasty surprise. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer and a radio signal from a control center miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine 1 off , he will not be able to start it again.

　　For now, such devices 2 are only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars, and 3 should be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4 in two months.

　　The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the carincorporates 5 a miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. 6 If the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine 7 being restarted.

　　There are even plans for immobilizers 8 that shut down vehicles on the move, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.

　　In the UK. an array of technical fixes is already making 9 life harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicles crime has changed,” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire that is funded in part 10 by the motor insurance industry.

　　He says it would only take him a few minutes to 11 teach a novice how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.

　　Modern cars are a far tougher proposition, as their engine management computer will not 12 allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition key. In the UK, technologies like this 13 have helped achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime since 1997.

　　But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by getting hold of the owner’s keys in a burglary. In 2000, 12 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken using the owner’s keys double the previous year’s figure.

　　Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14 put a major new obstacle in the criminal’s way by making such thefts pointless. A group that includes Thatcham, the police, insurance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system that could goon the market sooner than the 15 customer expects.

　　遠(yuǎn)程制止偷車賊

　　超速駕駛在偷來的汽車?yán)?，偷車賊以為自己大獲全勝。但是他馬上就會(huì)又驚又惱。車上已經(jīng)被裝了遠(yuǎn)程制動(dòng)裝置，一個(gè)幾英里以外的控制中心發(fā)來的無線信號(hào)將確保盜賊一旦關(guān)閉引擎，他就不能再次發(fā)動(dòng)汽車了。采集者退散

　　目前，這種裝置只用于卡車隊(duì)或者用于建筑工地的特殊車輛上。但是遠(yuǎn)程制動(dòng)技術(shù)很快就會(huì)逐步應(yīng)用到普通汽車上。并且應(yīng)該在兩個(gè)月之內(nèi)用在英國的普通汽車上。

　　計(jì)劃是這樣的。把一個(gè)集合有微型無繩電話，微量處理器，存儲(chǔ)器以及全球定位系統(tǒng)的衛(wèi)星接收器的控制合子安裝在汽車上。如果汽車被盜，一個(gè)被編碼的無繩電話信號(hào)就會(huì)告訴這個(gè)裝置停止車輛引擎控制系統(tǒng)來阻止引擎再次被啟動(dòng)。

　　甚至還有一些人主張計(jì)劃將制動(dòng)裝置裝在運(yùn)行著的車輛上，可是這一來人們就會(huì)擔(dān)心這個(gè)系統(tǒng)的安全性。

　　在英國，一系列的技術(shù)裝置已經(jīng)讓盜車賊步履維艱了?，敹√m多來自位于貝克郡的一個(gè)由汽車保險(xiǎn)工業(yè)投資成立的名為撒策姆的安全研究機(jī)構(gòu)。他說：“車輛盜竊的手法已經(jīng)有所改變?！彼€聲稱只要是10年以上的汽車，他就能用幾樣的簡單的工具有幾分鐘之內(nèi)教會(huì)一個(gè)新手怎樣的偷車。

　　現(xiàn)代車卻遠(yuǎn)沒有這么簡單，因?yàn)樗鼈兊囊婀芾碛?jì)算機(jī)裝置只有接收到一個(gè)獨(dú)一無二的由點(diǎn)火鑰匙發(fā)送過來的身份密份才允許啟動(dòng)汽車。自1997年以來，在英國，技術(shù)人員已經(jīng)利用此項(xiàng)技術(shù)幫助減少了31%的涉及車輛犯罪案。

　　但是不死心的盜賊們卻還在一直想方設(shè)法偷車。例如很多時(shí)候，他們?cè)谝估锉I走主人的汽車鑰匙進(jìn)而偷車。在2000年，英國21%的車輛被盜案是由于主人的鑰匙被盜，這個(gè)數(shù)字比前一年增長了1倍。

　　遠(yuǎn)程控制的制動(dòng)系統(tǒng)給盜賊設(shè)置了一個(gè)全新的障礙。包括撒策姆，公安部門，保險(xiǎn)公司以及安全技術(shù)公司的這樣一個(gè)群體已經(jīng)為體系開發(fā)出了一個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，將比顧客所預(yù)期的更早地被很快推廣到市場上。
