SafeRoads Project Frequently Asked Questions

What is SafeRoads

SafeRoads Project is a free anonymous driver reporting platform. Anyone can report unsafe driving by entering a vehicle license plate number. If the vehicle owner is registered, they receive instant alerts about how their drivers behave on the road. It works in three steps: (1) Witness unsafe driving, (2) Enter the plate number at saferoadsproject.com or the mobile app, (3) Owner gets notified. No account needed to report. Reports are anonymous—drivers never see who reported them.

Yes, SafeRoads is free for personal use. You can register up to 2 vehicles and receive email notifications at no cost. Paid plans ($1.99/month Basic, $3.99/month Silver) add instant push notifications, more vehicles, and priority alerts. Reporting unsafe drivers is always free—no account required.

Yes. When you report a vehicle, the owner only sees: the date, time, location (approximate), and type of incident. They never see your name, contact info, or any identifying details. You do not need an account to file a report. SafeRoads does not collect or store reporter identities.

Use Cases

Register your teen vehicle on SafeRoads. When others on the road witness unsafe driving—speeding, texting, running lights—they can report it. You receive instant notifications. This creates accountability without installing tracking hardware. Teen drivers are 1.6x more likely to be in fatal accidents. SafeRoads helps parents start safety conversations based on real feedback from the road.

Fleet managers register company vehicles and receive reports when drivers are reported for unsafe behavior. This supplements GPS tracking with real-world feedback from other drivers. Use cases include delivery fleets, service vehicles, and company cars. Business plans support unlimited vehicles and multiple admin users. Reports help identify training needs before accidents happen.

Yes. Adult children often worry about aging parents driving ability but want to respect their independence. Register the vehicle, and if community members report unsafe driving patterns, you receive alerts. This provides objective feedback without confrontation, helping families make informed decisions about driving safety.

How To

Go to saferoadsproject.com or open the SafeRoads app. Enter the vehicle license plate number. Select the incident type (distracted driving, speeding, aggressive driving, etc.). Add optional details. Submit. The entire process takes under 30 seconds. You do not need an account. Pull over safely before reporting—never use your phone while driving.

Create a free account at saferoadsproject.com. Go to your profile and click Add Vehicle. Enter your license plate number and vehicle details. Once verified, you will receive notifications whenever someone reports your vehicle. Free accounts get email alerts. Paid subscriptions add instant push notifications to your phone.

Yes. SafeRoads apps are available for iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). The app lets you report unsafe drivers quickly, receive push notifications when your vehicles are reported, and view your report history. Search SafeRoads Project in your app store.

Comparisons

Dashcams record your own driving for insurance purposes. SafeRoads collects reports from other drivers about your vehicle. They complement each other. A dashcam protects you in accidents. SafeRoads alerts you to unsafe driving behavior you would otherwise never know about—like when your teen or employee drives recklessly when you are not in the car.

Different tools for different needs. GPS trackers show location and speed. SafeRoads provides real-world feedback from other drivers about actual driving behavior—things GPS cannot detect like tailgating, distracted driving, or running stop signs. Many fleet managers and parents use both together.

Trust & Safety

False reports are rare because reporters gain nothing from them. SafeRoads shows patterns, not single incidents. One report is informational; multiple reports indicate a real issue. You can view report details including time, location, and incident type to assess validity. If you believe reports are malicious, contact us.

Only the registered vehicle owner sees detailed reports. Reports are not public. They are not shared with insurance companies, law enforcement, or employers (unless the employer registered the fleet vehicle). You control your data.
