According to the NY Times, the site and company was the first to use Bing Maps Platform to pinpoint speed traps and traffic accidents in the United States[2] and parts of Europe.[3] A privately held company founded in 2007, Njection.com LLC is headquartered in Portland, OR. InnovationsThe original intent of the company and website was to provide a news and communication forum for car enthusiasts. That functionality continues to exist in the News and Forum areas of the website. When it became apparent that speed traps were a big focus in the forum, the Speedtrap feature was added.[4] The Speedtrap Mashup was the first online site to use the Bing Maps Platform to allow users to contribute in real time the location of speed traps around the world.[2] In 2009, the Speedtrap mapping system was upgraded to allow users to add traffic accidents and fatalities[5] and traffic flow and speed to the maps. The Speedtrap functionality relies on drivers to update the map; therefore, the functionality is dependent on the information provided by registered users.[6] In 2008, the company developed the Njection Mobile (NMobile) application for the iPhone.[7] This application was the first non-Microsoft application to use the Bing Maps Platform and the Active Intelligence Selection System to provide access to speed trap information while driving.[8] Although it was initially offered as a paid application, the NMobile application has been available as a free download since 2009. In 2008, the Microsoft-enabled application also became available as a downloadable file on Garmin GPS units.[9] That functionality is no longer available through Garmin.
