Distraction-Free Driving: 3 Apps to Save Your Life
How apps could save the life of your loved ones
Cell phone use while driving has become a huge risk on the road. The crash risk created from this distraction is 23 times worse than if there were no distractions. Using a cell phone in general already accounts for 37% loss in brain activity while driving. Check out this link for more information on distracted driving statistics.
I met with Harry Brown personally and he sat with me for 20 minutes at our initial consultation to explain everything. He even called after my surgery to see how I was doing. I met with him several more times after that and was kept informed about my case throughout. I highly recommend Harry Brown as an attorney.
HOW TO COMBAT THE TEMPTATION OF TEXTING
Many developers have recognized the need for a little help with self-control while driving and have created a variety of applications that can be used to limit the temptation to use your cell phone while driving. Here are a few applications that could help keep you and your loved ones safe:*
- Text-STAR: This Android application automatically disables texting once your vehicle reaches 10 MPH. It also allows you to schedule auto responses with custom replies. It even allows for passengers to gain access once locked. Think this app is for you? Click here to learn more.
- DriveScribe: Call, text and email blocking, this application covers it all. It also allows users to earn points for gift cards with safe driving. Moms and dads, this could be your teen’s new favorite app. It’s available for both Android and iOS phones. Get it here.
- DriveSafe.ly: Not many applications extend to Blackberry phones, but this application covers both Android and Blackberry devices. It also reads your text and email messages aloud in real time and enables the driver to automatically respond without lifting a finger. The best part about this application? It’s free.
