A GPS Radar Gun For Speed Trap Cameras

from the fighting-technology-with-technology dept

The battle continues… As police are increasingly using speed trap cameras to ticket speeders, now in the UK you can buy a little GPS device that warns you when you’re approaching one of these electronic speed traps. They’re looking for a US distributor. Of course, these only work if the system knows the location of the cameras, but luckily, the device comes with a modem which you can use to download the latest database of cameras – which is updated daily. They even let you indicate a camera if you see one, and will send you a reward for finding new ones.
