# Driver Location Read History

The `GET /users/{user_id}/locations` route may not be available in every project.

Use the socket flow for real-time tracking instead of polling location history. The event is named `tracking_driver`; confirm that name in your client version. See the [Sockets reference](https://get.ordering.help/reference/sockets).
