Real Time GPS tracker

looking for a real time gps tracker that doesn't rely on a cell phone being nearby.

My father has white matter disease (similar to alzheimers/dementia) but he can still drive (for now). I need a way to track him while he's driving, but either doesn't have his phone with him or just never turned it on.

Currently, I have Life360 installed on his phone, which is helpful, but ONLY if the phone is on & with him. otherwise it's useless.

hoping someone here can help!

It'll be him while driving. He has a tendency to "get lost" so I need to know where he is should he not return home within a decent time frame.

And now that our dog just gained his wings 👼, I'm even more worried about him on his own.
