Andoid App Win Speeding Case

In today’s society, technology is always becoming a larger part of our lives. It’s difficult to do anything without some sort of technology monitoring us or tracking us. However, in the case of Sahas Katta of Skattertech.com that might not be such a bad thing.


While Katta was driving, he was pulled over by a cop for going 40 mph in a 25 mph zone, however, Katta claimed that he was not but what is his word over a policeman’s? Katta says, “At the time I was in a panicked mental state and simply handed over my driver's license, insurance, and registration information without asking any questions." But then we had a chance to thing the situation through, he remembered that that he installed My Tracks by Google, an app that tracks your GPS data on a map that includes time, speed, distance, and elevation.


Katta then took his speeding ticket to court to dispute the ticket. After asking a few question, it appeared that the police officer didn’t remember when he last went to radar gun training or when the radar gun was last calibrate. He finally showed the judge his GPS information and won the case.
