FoxyTag.com - Avoid Being Caught by Speed Cameras

Are you broke from paying speeding tickets? Do you want to know where those sneaky speed cameras are? Well you should visit FoxyTag.com and download their tagging service to your cell phone. FoxyTag.com warns you where stationary and mobile speed cameras are located while you are driving. Create a profile and download the application on your PC then transfer it to your mobile with a USB cable or Bluetooth. Check the website to see if your phone is compatible or take the FoxyTest. Once you begin you start creating trust relationships with other users. All of the tags are submitted by
users so you create more trust relationships the more you participate.
When you are driving you will be warned 15 seconds before approaching a speed camera. A red dot will appear on your cell phone warning you of the speed camera and its location. You can signal a stationary speed camera by pressing "1" on your cell, a mobile camera "2" and the disappearance of a speed camera by pressing "0". FoxyTago.com is
internationally used. The application is free and is part of a scientific research project by Michel Deriaz at Geneva University.

"The idea consists in posting virtual tags close to speed cameras in order to warn the other drivers. These users will then get an alarm when they are closer than 15 seconds to a critical point, and a red
point locating the speed camera appears on their screen. You can signal a fixed speed camera by pressing the key "1" of your mobile phone, a mobile one by pressing key "2" and that a camera disappeared (you get an alarm but you do not see any speed camera) by pressing "0". You are also invited to signal speed cameras that have already
been tagged; by confirming their presence, you create trust links with
other users and get more reliable information. The system excludes
automatically users that do not vote "like the others". Roughly
speaking, the more you participate, the more the information you get is reliable. FoxyTag is a "collaborative" system. Tags posted by FoxyTag are directional. So, tags posted for users driving in the
opposite direction won't be signalized to you.

FoxyTag motivates neither speeding nor any other risky behavior, but allows the driver to concentrate on the road instead of having is eyes fixed on the speedometer, by fear of being flashed. We observe that drivers tend to brake suddenly when they see a speed camera (even if they are not speeding), which can provoke traffic jams or even
accidents. FoxyTag signals in advance the presence of speed cameras, so that the driver has enough time to check its speed and adapt it if necessary."

I wish FoxyTag existed when I first hit the road nine years ago, it would have saved me a pretty penny. The site is helpful for drivers and is also created by drivers, each benefiting and contributing. The trust relationships get users involved, with individuals who
participate the most receiving more warnings.

Depending on your cell phone you might not be able to participate, which is disappointing. Also will people become distracted by FoxyTag waiting for warnings and therefore actually causing more accidents?
