One product to hit the market, software by Dallas-based WQN Inc.,
can disable a cell phone while its owner is driving.
The new product uses GPS technology, which can tell how fast a
person is traveling. But it can't know whether the person is driving and
therefore it can needlessly lock a phone.
Aegis Mobility, a Canadian software company, plans to release this
Global Positioning System-based product, known as DriveAssistT.
DriveAssistT system will disable a phone at driving speeds and
send a message to callers or texters saying the person they are trying to reach
is too busy driving. Setup involves installing the device in your car, which
should take all of two seconds, and installing an app on the phone you want to
disable when the car is in motion.
Text messaging or talking on your cell phone while driving is a
nasty habit, dangerous and illegal. It's hard to break habits sometimes though,
but you don't have to rely on willpower alone. Hence E-mail, texting, phone
calls, web access, the camera and more they’ll all be rendered useless once the
car is in motion.
