Emergency Radio (Police Scanner)
In case of fire, flood, earthquake, riot or police chase, not a bad tool to have.
Aha Radio
This app includes current traffic(either nearby or user generated), on demand podcasts, driver rants, certain twitter feeds, facebook status updates and few other things you might find interesting while driving. While this might sound like a lot of other apps out there, this app reads to you the traffic reports, facebook feeds and twitter updates with a relatively impressive computerized voice. That way you don’t have to actually look at the phone to get the information you need. The icons to select the services are nice and big which make it easy to navigate while driving so you can concentrate on the road. And the best part, it’s free. This is a must get for anyone who drives a lot or deals with a lot of traffic on a daily basis like those of us in the LA area.
