Vehicle accidents are frequently caused by drunk drivers and car distractions. The new laws regarding cell phones being used in cars depending on where you live have been put into effect in many different ways. Sprint has announced a new application for Android phones called "Drive First". This application sends all your phone calls directly to voice mail and all your text messages are auto responded saying that you'll get back to them later. The application prevents you from using the cell phone while you are driving, it detects if you are in a driving car. We aren't sure if it'll lock your phone in a moving train or bus but somehow it detects how you are driving. This feature is available for a charge at $2 per month and parents of teenagers learning to drive should take advantage of this if they want to protect their child from distractions while driving.
