Create a low-intensity cell phone jamming field within the frame of the car that is activated when the engine is running and the car is in any gear other than "Park" or "Neutral". The field could be modulated to let the ring through, but prevent talk. The driver could then pull over and catch or return
the call.

with a handsfree kit, it's perfectly safe and legal to use you mobile/cellphone. Why should you jam it? |
|
| |
Because, while a handsfree set may be legal, it is not "perfectly safe". Studies have shown that it is the talking on a cell phone while driving that is dangerous, not the type of cell phone. |

There's nothing illegal about using a cell phone in a moving car if you're the passenger, so fishbone, sorry. |
|
| |
And, btw, statistics also show that distractions from adjusting the radio and other dashboard controls causes more accidents than cell phone usage. |
|

Yeah! Don't block my cell! You'd take away from me the only joy I get from driving (driving WHILE talking on the phone). |
|
| |
Is that why you crash it once a month? |
|
| |
This is good. Too many people use their cellphones when they are driving, and then they don't pay attention to the road, just the damn phone. Yes says I! |

I'm think the cell phone companies
could stop the problem very
quickly by not allowing seamless
use between one transmission
tower and the next.In other words,
if you were driving and you went
out of range of the first tower you
made contact with, the call would
end.You would need to try again.
That would be annoying so maybe
people would stop so they wouln't
loose their signal? |

[Shanly] - what if you're on a bus or a train?
What if you're sitting where I work, where phones can toggle between three towers in as many minutes?
Sp: lose. |
