Keep death off the roads with an app is the title of a punching post but not without giving an obvious solution:
"...When you are driving, there are only a few of your phone’s functions you might legitimately need. Voice calls, satellite navigation and, at a pinch, music and podcasts (you don’t need to go shopping, check your stock portfolio or watch films).
Therefore it would be relatively simple for mobile phones to detect when you are driving and switch to a much simpler interface — a few basic choices with only one or two buttons, each half the size of the screen (technically called a ‘fat finger’ design). When you connect to your car’s Bluetooth, or when you reach a certain speed, the phone should default to this much simpler format..."
I especially like the final point of Rory Sutherland article, it's so true:
"The mobile phone is a dangerously attention-seeking device. And I suspect most of us have, at least once in our lives, done exactly what Tomasz Kroker did. We were just lucky enough to get away with it."
