Distracted driving has been proven to be a significant cause of automobile accidents.

A mobile marketer in Boca Raton, Florida has introducted anti-texting software that automatically deactivates the keyboard of cellphones inside a moving car. It works like a GPS and eliminates the ability to text, email, surf the Web or send instant messages once the vehicle's speed has reached 10 miles per hour. This may be one way to prevent auto accidents resulting from distracted driving.

Senders of incoming messages are notified that their text has been received, but the recipient was busy driving and could not respond.

The mobile application's other features include SpeedAlert, which notifies the administrator, a parent or an employer, when the phone has gone over a certain speed limit by sending a text message, giving the speed and location on the map.

This mobile application, among the early ones on the market, costs only $29.95 per phone.
