FoxyTag Speed Cameras Now Offered by amAze GPS
Drivers using a speed camera alert system have less accidents. People using a GPS navigation system increase road safety as well. And now amAze GPS, the leading mobile navigation service, offers both functionalities.
London, United Kingdom, November 19, 2009 --(PR.com)-- FoxyTag is a worldwide speed cameras warning system working on mobile phones. The system is collaborative and self-managed: The users "tag" the speed cameras and special electronic trust engines check the quality of the posted information. FoxyTag contains today more than 35'000 fixed speed cameras, mainly in Europe, Australia, Brazil, Taïwan, USA, Canada, Russia, South Africa, Bulgaria, China, Denmark, New Zealand, Singapore, Slovakia and Israel. FoxyTag signals also mobile speed cameras and ghosts (places where there are often mobile speed cameras).
Speed cameras help to slow down the traffic in dangerous areas and increase therefore the road safety. However, they cause also many accidents, typically by people that brake just before them, by fear of being flashed, even if they weren't speeding. The solution is obvious: If the main role of speed cameras is to increase road safety, then these cameras must be placed in dangerous areas and well signalized to the drivers. More and more reports (the first was http://www.foxytag.com/news/20070716.pdf) show that people having a speed camera alert system have less accidents than the others.
Another fact, which is less known but still important, is that people using a GPS navigation system in unknown areas provoke less accidents. This fact becomes even more true as these systems improve every day. The new intelligent features that help you to drive efficiently, like telling to change lane in preparation of an oncoming turn, reduces hesitations and last-second dangerous changes of direction. The amAze navigation solution is typically one that meets all the requirements we expect from an efficient "co-driver."
Today amAze GPS is integrating the FoxyTag speed cameras in its navigation system, further improving the driver’s road safety and allowing the driver to save money by avoiding potential fines. The current version of amAze GPS alerts the driver about fixed and mobile speed cameras on his driving direction. It is enough to turn amAze on and to have a valid GPS signal for the warning system to be activated.
According to Ofer Tziperman, President of LocatioNet (the developer of amAze), “We believe that the FoxyTag database and tagging system is a perfect match to the amAze GPS navigation system. The amAze GPS users can enjoy the peace of mind that the speed camera alerts provide, and they can also report additional fixed and mobile speed cameras. This is a valuable user-generated content for the benefit of all drivers. It is mainly about increasing road safety.” Michel Deriaz, the FoxyTag project leader, is very satisfied with this partnership: "FoxyTag and amAze GPS share a similar philosophy: No useless and expensive gadgets, just precise data presented in a very clear way. I think that current FoxyTag users will easily switch to this nice worldwide navigation system."
The amAze GPS application is available on most mobile phones and can be tested for free for one month.
