Laws are ineffective if people are unaware of their requirements and relatively few laws are publicly posted for all to see. When was the last time you traveled and didn’t know the local laws? Even keeping track of changes in your home state can be a hassle and lead to unintended tickets or property seizure.
This is where ATLAS comes in. They keep you aware of laws as they change so you don’t have to and provide short, easily digestible summaries as well as giving you access to the full legal text to solidify your understanding of the full law. Users can view information on any covered law for any state at any time they so desire and opt in to notifications of changes based on location, new laws going into effect or both.
ATLAS takes the user’s preferences and customizes notifications so you only see what matters to you.
The app initially covers 49 subjects within six categories, which are:
- Laws governing interactions with law enforcement
- Marijuana laws
- Traffic laws
- Alcohol laws
- Gun laws
- Tax rate laws
ATLAS, an Android application designed to easily navigate the nuances of various state laws is now out of beta and is available for free on the Google Play store for Android phones.
Is there an app like this for IPhones?
