Systems and methods for monitoring a vehicle location and orientation use initial location and orientation data in combination with one or more past calculated vehicle speeds and steering angles. A near field radio frequency (RF) transmission is periodically emitted and is receivable by one or more antennas embedded in one or more tires of the vehicle. One or more responsive RF transmissions are periodically received from respective ones of the one or more antennas embedded in the tires, and the vehicle speed and steering angle are periodically calculated based on the received RF transmissions. The current vehicle location and orientation are periodically calculated based on the initial location and orientation data and one or more past calculated vehicle speeds and steering angles.
