Chris drives with Trapster on WBZ-TV

I drove around with David Wade from CBS News talking about a cellphone application called Trapster that helps you find police speed traps.

iPod Touch doesn't have GPS or the ability to get onto the Internet while you're in the car (3G), so you'd probably be better off using your regular non-smart cellphone. On a non-smart phone, Trapster uses SMS.

alsuwaidi87 - Cool, I'm glad you like it. Don't forget to give back by reporting all the speed traps you see so other people will know! :)

If you use Trapster on a non-smart phone, it uses SMS to send you messages about where police are in the areas you've defined on the map at the Trapster website. Also, once you register your non-smart phone, you can use it report live traps using your voice (just say the address or intersection) by calling the Trapster tip line at 8662080466.

Also see Waze, great app too. BUT POLICE, how about concentrating on putting away child rapists and thugs rather than speeding soccer moms and tax paying citizens, the people who pay your salary!!

You can't put it on "any" phone. The application is for smartphones with GPS capability.
