TurnSignl, an app that helps drivers record roadside interactions with law enforcement and immediately access lawyers via videoconferencing, won the Startup Alley pitch competition at the ABA Techshow 2022 this week, the ABA Journal reports. Jazz Hampton, CEO and general counsel at TurnSignl, said, “Our mission is simple and three pronged: It’s to protect drivers’ civil rights, to de-escalate roadside interactions and third, and most importantly, ensure every driver and law enforcement officer returns home safe at the end of the day.” App users gain 24/7 access to a network of attorneys who have all gone through third-party de-escalation training as a condition of being allowed onto the platform. The app is currently available to drivers in California, Georgia and Minnesota, but the company’s goal is to expand to all 50 states.
