Free iPhone App Prevents Speeding Tickets
Here's yet another great idea for an iPhone app. Trapster, from a company by the same name, enables iPhone owners to avoid one of life's many perils: the speeding ticket. In theory, at least.
The free app follows a driver's location as a dot on a map. If said driver passes a police officer lurking by the side of the road with a radar gun, they can tap the iPhone to mark the location as a speed trap point. That data point is then sent to a server; other drivers using Trapster will then be alerted of that speed trap when they approach this point on the map.
Of course, like any social networking application, Trapster relies on people actually using it to be effective. Come on people, take one for the team. It's free, and speeding tickets are not. [From: Wired]
