Texting and driving is incredibly dangerous. According to The National Highway SafetyAdministration, more than 3,300 people were killed in 2012, and another 420,000 were injuredas a result of distracted driving. Over 40 states and the District of Columbia have institutedlaws to outlaw texting and driving, however, it is still a huge problem. There are apps availablethat can help minimize the problem of texting and driving.

There are many different types of texting and driving apps available. It makes sense to readabout a variety of apps, check out the reviews, then decide which ones sound like they wouldwork best in your situation. Many of these apps are not free, so it makes sense to do someresearch before selecting one.

Self Reporting Apps

Certain apps work by the driver initiating the app at the beginning of the drive, then turning it offwhen the driver reaches his destination. These are effective at removing distractions fromotherwise responsible individuals, however they do require the user to take the initiative to turnthem on and off for each trip. Apps such as iZup and tXtBlocker do not require anadministrator to use.

Administrator Reporting Apps

Other apps work by requiring a third party, such as a parent, to sign off on unlocking thephone. They lock up when the phone goes over a particular speed, such as 10 mph, or bydirection of the administrator. When the driver reaches their destination, the administratorunlocks the phone remotely, or the driver requests the unlock, which the administrator mustapprove. Apps such as Textecution and OneProtect are administrator reporting apps.

AT&T Drive Mode

This app is free for anyone with AT&T service. It sends an automatic reply to text messagesstating that you are driving. Incoming and outgoing calls as well as web browsing are disabledwhile the app is active; although users can make and receive phone calls from up to fivepredetermined numbers, as well as 911. Users can also run one music application and onenavigation application while the app is running.

DriveSafe.ly

DriveSafe.ly works by reading texts and emails out loud as they come in. Unlike other textingwhile driving apps, it does not shut down communication completely. The app also sends anauto response to anyone who texts or emails.

Cell Safety

Cell Safety offers a range apps designed to make cellphone use safer. They include apps thatallow you to monitor messages, GPS tracking apps, speed alerts, and the ability to set uptexting zones as well as no texting and driving apps.

As you can see, there are varieties of texting while driving apps available, but none fullyanswer the problem of how to stop texting while driving completely. Each of these apps requirea certain amount of diligence and self-discipline to work. Using one of these apps, along withtalking to those you care about about the importance of putting away the phone while driving,will help drivers develop safe habits.
