PhantomALERT - The modern day CB!

Using PhantomALERT on your GPS is reminiscent of using CB radios back in the 1970's. Our red-light, speed-camera detector works by using GPS to map out the locations of all known traffic enforcement locations. The location database is then loaded on a GPS product similar to a radar detector. Users and PhantomALERT employees work together to keep each other informed of all the dangers of high cost tickets out there.

Meet the Founder and CEO of PhantomALERT - Joe Scott



Joe Scott developed PhantomALERT after getting red light camera tickets and being unable to fight the "photo-enforced" violations in the mail. He created a download that is compatible with the top three GPS units, Tom-Tom, Garmin and Magellan, and it alerts drivers when they are approaching red light cameras, photo-enforced speed camera intersections and regularly manned speed traps by beeping, giving them enough time to slow down. Joe is 39-years-old and lives in Washington D.C.


If you have a question or comment for Joe, he would love to hear from you directly at joe@phantomalert.com.
