In a series of recent papers [1, 2, 3] the concept of tracing stolen cars was introduced and developed. Generally, the aim is to intercept wanted cars, hence course prediction is a crucial issue. Unlike e.g. ballistic missiles, the route of a road vehicle is controlled continuously by decisions of its driver. In this paper, we develop several models of drivers’ behavior and analyze their impact on the predictability of future positions. Next, two sets of observation points are compared with respect to their hit rate on a sample of vehicle paths generated according to a given type of behavior.
