It's a high tech way to do the same thing people have been doing for years with CB radios and flashing headlights at other drivers to warn them of a speed trap ahead. Social networking meets radar detectors. It works using the GPS location capabilities of your iPhone.

Now also with local search (e.g. "pizza"), directions, traffic, and a trip recorder feature with geotagged photo support.

Features:

- World's most complete and up to date speed trap and camera database with 500,000 traps reported.

- Alerts for speed traps, red light cameras, speed cameras, mobile speed vans, checkpoints, and more. Temporary traps such as motorcycle police with laser expire automatically.

- Virtual Radar(R) dynamic alert area narrows and elongates based on your speed and direction of travel.

- As of iPhone 3.0, Trapster uses the native iPhone MapKit with Google maps for the best possible mapping experience on the iPhone.

- As you approach a reported trap a spoken voice alert will play, and on-screen icons will animate, according to the type of trap (for example "Live Police!"). Alerts can be in English, French, German, Spanish, plus a lot of fun sound themes.

- Report traps that you see by simply tapping the screen.

- Rate traps submitted by other users (agree/disagree).

- The system learns the credibility of users over time based on how many other users agree with the traps they report.

- Push notifications (optional) can alert you even when the app is not running.
