Field notes
The reporting flow covers cameras, police checks, crashes, jams and closures, with the site describing human review before reports reach the map. Its sample camera entry identifies Nsawam Road, Caprice, gives an approximate location, and specifies a 100-metre zone and 50 km/h limit. The page says the app stores hotspots on the phone for alerts without signal.
