| I will flash my headlights to warn opposing drivers of them approaching a speed trap... but only on roads with limited access, limited congestion and where a little extra speed really isn't going to hurt.
I refuse to warn drivers of speed traps in school zones, residential areas and in areas where it is obviously dangerous to go above the speed limit.
It is funny how we get a little more sense as we get older. I used to drive like a madman, taking shortcuts through residential areas. Now I stick to the main route (no shortcuts usually), and I tend to drive at or just above the speed limit. I will pull over and let someone by if they tailgate. I did it about 45 minutes ago. If I cannot pull over, I can get pissed at idiots so close I cannot see their headlights. To coin a phrase from The Hulk, "You wouldn't like me when I am angry."
Thanks for the app tip, Teo. I will check it out. | |

| I installed the app, but it kept sending me text codes as some sort of verification and when I went back to the app after getting the code, there was no place to enter this code.
I don't know if it installed properly or not. | |

| Mine works pretty good. It warned me of the speed cameras in Milton. You give it a phone number it txts you the. Code to open the program. You can also give it your Facebook and it will show you where your Facebook friends are. I only have 3 so I dont care. | |

| I stay away from Facebook integration... like a plague. If an app or program asks you to log in using Facebook, I always decline.
I communicate via Facebook when I WANT to communicate via Facebook. | |

| I was on Facebook and had lots and lots of friends but I got tired of all the time it took to be sociable and answer peoples mundane questions everyday. I got off and about a year later some Indian Hindu type stole my gmail And opened a duplicate face book account. It took me weeks and lots of gmail and Facebook contacting to resolve the problem. So I opened a new account so nobody else could but I only allowed 3 friends on it. | |

| We used the program a lot this weekend. Christine ran it from the passenger seat. She fiddled with it a lot. I couldn't even see the screen. It was a lot safer that way.
We liked the audio alerts like "Caution, vehicle on shoulder", or "Policeman ahead". I could hear that and didn't have to take my eyes off the road. | |
