Wow, there really is an app for that...

... I'd been wondering if there were an app like this. I just wish you could take a photo of the offending license plate, rather than having to speak it, and that the app would directly report the plate to the local PD. There are just way too many aggressive drivers down here...

No need for that app, I don't drink; and even if I did, I certainly wouldn't drive in that condition. (

Except you have to figure most people using this app are also driving and using the camera while driving is reckless, thus the app should then report the user of the app as well.

Won't Apple disable it remotely?

I don't think so. That would be really weird if they could do that.

Nope, most commonly, I've found myself stopped (stationary) behind the person who needs to be reported...

Which is like saying it's ok to text or talk without a handsfree while stopped but still on the road/in traffic. (I'm not saying I never do this, I'll admit I do on occasion, but I do realize it's illegal where I live)

That's true, but there's also a difference between taking a photo and texting.
