Trapster® is a cool program that uses your phone's GPS and Internet to alert you as you approach reported traps/Red light camera at real time. It works with iPhone/Blackberry/Windows Mobile 5/Windows Mobile 6/Java-J2ME, etc phones.

When you see a trap, report it by pressing a button on your phone, or calling a toll free number. Other user's phones will alert them as they approach the trap. Trapster® learns the credibility of traps based on how many users agree. It also learns the credibility of each user, over time.

Police are not stupid. They change the locations where they set up speed traps many times per day. Only real time data is useful. Trapster® data is real time data.

You can check the map here that show the location for "live police", "red light camera", "speed camera", and "usual police hiding place": http://www.trapster.com/rl/Trapster.php

Speed trap location data is only useful if you can actually use it. You can't just look on a map and memorize all the trap locations. Trapster® continuously communicates with your mobile phone or connected device (for example the Dash Express or CarPC). Data is never stale. And it's FREE.
