Rider Revenge is a free mobile app that helps passengers and pedestrians DO something when they see a Distracted Driver.
No more yelling and shaking your fist when you see someone texting behind the wheel. In less than 6 seconds, you can spot a driver who is more focused on a text, sandwich, or make-up, than on the highway.
Together we are mapping when and where we see careless drivers, to make our communities safer and helping you to avoid the most dangerous roads.
Drivers: stay focused on the road and remember not to use your cell phones behind the wheel.
Rider Revenge is built on the company’s geo-specific, time-dependent mapping technology, called CrowdSpotting.
The proprietary software collects input from a large number of individual users, then aggregates the output to identify trends and develop actionable steps forward. The company is developing a technology platform to apply CrowdSpotting to a range of public sector and consumer research applications.
Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
