  This is all for New York, the page should be updated to indicate that.

  I didn't recognize the names of the streets where it said my nearest camera was. It turns out it's on the other coast. Perhaps it would be good to show the distance in parentheses, or filter anything that's more than 5 miles away.

  If anyone wanted to make something similar for California here is a map of traffic cameras there.

  "It looks like you might be on desktop, which I did not design for because I do not want you to bring your laptop into traffic :("

  I'm in the UK. Why would I want to use a phone to browse a forum or hit your traffic camera thing?
