Jaunted

Controversial as it is, the program has some definite, positive uses: save yourself from freaking out in red-light intersections by skipping them entirely, cruise around traffic stops in you're in a time crunch, and steer clear of other drivers who may be just as bad a driver as you are, but who haven't yet smartened up to GPS or Phantom Alert.

According to King5 News in Seattle, the software won't have you feeling illicit, unlike owning a forever-beeping radar detector; the information for the program comes from publicly-listed camera locations and "from drivers who report speed traps and mobile cameras and, in some cases, the company says it’s getting data from police themselves who are using it as a public service."

Even though there is the opinion that avoiding red light cameras encourages erratic driving, we're looking at this issue in terms of road tripping, and there is no way we want to have to show up to a court date in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
