Travis County Police Officially Using Trapster


Google Buzz

Trapster has officially teamed up with the police! That’s right, the Travis County Sheriff’s Office, in Austin Texas, is now entering their own enforcement locations, as well as other information such as dangerous intersections, road closures, accidents, and traffic jams.

Trapster gets drivers to slow down and that is the whole point of conducting “speed traps” and writing tickets. Recently, Team Trapster flew to Austin to meet the entire department and gave them access to Trapster like never before.

Badge Icon

 

Travis County Sheriff’s Office will have their own custom trap icons featuring a police badge, so when they enter their location, you will know it is from a trusted source.

First of Many

 

More and more police departments are stepping forward to become official Trapster users, so if you know that your local department would be interested in joining, send us an email: Partners@trapster.net
