Made for New York’s TLC-licensed drivers

Stop paying tickets you never saw coming.

CABEMAN is your copilot on New York streets. It warns you out loud about speed and red-light cameras, school zones, banned turns and the streets where police ticket the most — while you drive with Waze or Google Maps.

$50 for every speed or red-light camera ticket in NYC — and they add up fast.
Points An NYPD moving violation adds points to your license — and your TLC license keeps count.
$0 is what CABEMAN costs to warn you before every camera, school zone and banned turn.

The copilot

It warns you before the ticket.

Keep driving with Waze or Google Maps. CABEMAN speaks up only when something on your route can cost you money. Scroll and ride with him.

01Heading toward a camera, in the direction it enforces? About 20 seconds before.
02School zone with class in session? Only on school days, 7 AM–6 PM.
03A street where police ticket a lot — at the hours they do it.
04The No U-turn sign in front of you, not the one across the street.
2,926cameras located across the five boroughs
737ticket hotspots that repeat year after year
66,016no-standing, idling and U-turn signs
3,108schools, only on school days

All from NYC Open Data: DOT signs, camera and NYPD tickets, the DOE school calendar.

More than a copilot

One app for your whole shift.

Ask CABEMAN anything

Which airport is worth it right now, the best zones, how your day went, when your TLC license expires or what a rule says. Type it or hold the button and just talk — in English, Spanish or Bengali.

Your TLC license, never late

Type your number once: CABEMAN finds it in the city records and from then on watches the expiration, drug test, courses, tickets and suspensions — plus DMV checks. It tells you before something becomes a problem.

Your whole day, trip by trip

Navigation history follows your shift for you: every trip with its miles and time, the tolls you crossed and what each stop probably was — a passenger, the airport or a break. Red lights and traffic don't count.

Tolls and E-ZPass, without surprises

CABEMAN notices the bridges and tunnels you cross, reads your E-ZPass balance and violations, and checks Tolls by Mail for every plate. Your E-ZPass password never leaves your phone.

Questions drivers ask

Does it replace Waze or Google Maps?

No. Keep navigating with the app you like. CABEMAN runs alongside it and speaks over it only when something affects you.

How do you know where the cameras are?

NYC doesn't publish camera locations, but every camera ticket names the intersection and direction. CABEMAN groups millions of those tickets to place each camera and the direction it enforces. If a camera isn't confirmed by recent tickets, it's shown in gray and doesn't alert.

Does it show where the police are right now?

No. Ticket hotspots are historical: streets where NYPD has ticketed a lot, year after year, and the hours they usually do it. It's a reason to drive carefully, not a live police tracker.

Will it drain my battery or data?

The copilot turns on precise GPS only while you're moving, and the rules for the whole city live on your phone — it works even without a connection.

Is my information safe?

We never store your Social Security number, and your E-ZPass password stays on your phone, protected by Face ID if you choose.

Which languages?

English, Spanish and Bengali — in the app and in the spoken alerts.

Is it for Uber and Lyft drivers too?

Yes. CABEMAN is for every TLC-licensed driver in New York: yellow and green taxis, Uber, Lyft and other for-hire vehicles. It runs alongside whatever driver app you use.

Is CABEMAN free?

It's free to download, and your first week is CABEMAN Pro on us. After that, the free plan keeps the map with every camera and ticket street, your TLC dates, E-ZPass, toll detection, one plate and 10 copilot alerts a day. CABEMAN Pro ($29.99/year or $8.99/month) warns you the whole shift and adds the tools that help you earn more.

See you on the road!

Your next ticket can be the one you avoid.
