Default Police trap app!

Trapster finally came to the App Store today. For those of you who don't know about it, it's an app that allows you to log and get alerted about police traps (radars, etc...) around you. Pretty cool. Check it out!

I definitely gotta try this app out, cuz being 21 year old male and having a red sport compact isn't doing my driving record any favors

Some people on my blog are reporting that this app crashes. I haven't experienced any problem at all. Anyone had issues with it?

I dont know. Its kind of pointless. I have about 20 trap zones in a 2 mile radius and they are all old. Whats the point of showing old "possible" speed traps?

It's community oriented, which means that if the traps are not there anymore, you can report it and if someone else confirms that these traps are gone, they will not show up anymore.

Cool idea but just does not have even close to enough of a framework to operate well enough to justify having..

Had to problems with it. I chose to set a .25-mile radius. Hawaii's roads aren't very big. Pull up the program, lock the phone and it will let you know by voice. Pretty cool but only for the very paranoid. I ALWAYS drive like I don't want a ticket.

The more I go "street hiking," more photos will be added so keep checking!

It was kinda funny lol! Cause my dad was alittle nervous and was surprised that he had gotten a ticket. . .Supposedly we were around a college campus and the cops around their dont play with speeders so even if had gone 1 mile over the speed limit he wouldve gotten pulled over
