Inforad says that the PhantomAlert is road legal in all 50 states and Canada.
I’ve had one ticket in my driving career. That’s one too many.
While the solution might be to just slow down, others might benefit more from the PhantomAlert system.
This little alien-like gadget affixes to your dashboard, and uses GPS to detect red-light cameras and speed traps. The unit receives continuous software/download updates, all of which come from your fellow motorists—yes, even the ones that give you the finger!
Of course, you’ll need to subscribe to a service to get all of those tasty nuggets. It’s free for the first 12 months. After that, you’ll need to shell out £24.99 ($49) per year or £49.99 ($98) for a lifetime of updates.
It would be even cooler if this GPS unit was a combo, well, GPS, and could spot the fuzz while guiding you to the nearest IHOP.
Is it totally bizarre that the device is listed in U.S. dollars, while the service is in English pounds? It doesn’t matter. Depending on your track record, it could save you coin in a variety of currencies. The PhantomAlert is available now for $200.
I think this is a great technology unfortunately not many people have given their reports on the Speed/Red Light data base. Since this technology relies heavily on motorists reporting what is happening in their area, they should do some type of promotion to stimulate people reporting! Maybe after so many posts you get $5 off your monthly subscription? You wouldn’t have to run this promo for long to get people actively involved in reporting.
By the way I did report a Moto Cop that camps out at a specific intersection.
Thanks

so this totally relies on other people reports and not any electronic impulses or signals from the equipment itself?Sounds hokey to me….How about a V-1 and a C. M. Laser Shifter 3 which gives you an audible / visual signal that tells you your near or coming upon a photo op for our government officials and or Police using Laser to clock your speed. The shifter will block the signal of your speed and send them a fat zero….....you will not get a ticket. This makes more sense then relying on a download from someone that may mistake a camera for other equipment or some other dimwit sending in a false location. Besides this product does not help you if you are being clocked via a Lidar unit. you will open that wallet of yours and help out your local government coffers.
