AFAIK, legal to own and fit, but not legal to use.

Seems a bit pointless these days with apps like Waze. Tells you all the traffic cameras and because there's a big community doing live reporting you generally get alerted if there's police hidden etc.

How accurate is the app? Few people reviewing it says it always use location/data even when not in use?

Try it out and see, I think it's great. I have it on windows phone and haven't noticed anything strange going on with data? Not sure why that'd happen if the app had been exited properly anyway?

I've been sat in traffic jams chatting to other wazers up ahead telling me what's going on. Must be a lot of people using it because I always get the alerts for random coppers sat about, incidents, etc. that people have done. It also re-routes you if there's a qiucker way because of a jam ahead or something. Much better than the stock windows phone navigation anyway.

Sounds decent, just downloaded it so I'll give it a try. Almost been caught out a couple times by hiding police so hopefully this should help
