Your Phone Is Locked. Just Drive.

May 6, 2010 | by Active Trans

Fantastic NY Times article about new cell phone applications that lock phones from texting, calling, surfing the web, etc. if you are traveling faster than 5-10 mph (hint: it calculates this from GPS). Good for parents or anyone who wants to focus on attentive (not distracted) driving.

Active Trans is an invaluable resource for DuPage County. The organization’s work coordinating regional discussions on issues from long-range transportation planning to Safe Routes to School is extremely important. While it is not visible to the average bicyclist or walker, we all benefit from the results.
