Greetings from Mobile Generated News® MoGN!
Mothers can now feel a bit more secure with what
their teens are doing behind the wheel thanks to Samsung’s new App, Eyes on the Road. The game-like App determines the speed at which a phone is moving. If
the phone is moving at a rate of roughly 12 mph or faster, then the App blocks
all text, phone, or social media notifications from alerting the driver. The Samsung App disables the standard texting
App and is only available on Smartphones using the Android operating system.
Once a driver has reached a destination (the phone has
stopped moving for 10 minutes) the notifications are pushed to the phone. Users
receive rewards such as gas vouchers for driving miles while using the App.
Texting behind the wheel is one of the leading causes
of car crashes in America. Texting while driving makes a driver 23 times more likely to crash, according to research conducted by the
Virginia Tech Transportation Institute. However, 77 percent of young American
adults believe they are able to text and drive “safely.”
Eyes on the Road is solving a real-world problem and
so too is Mobile Generated News®. Most often, viewers do not get to control what
they see on the news. Now, the MoGN App enables
news enthusiasts to have a say in the content they see on their televisions,
