Sensors installed in phones would be able to detect the speed of the vehicle and work out where someone was sitting. This would allow passengers to send messages without any restrictions.



How??

Back in 1976 ish the mobile phone was only seen as a gimmick on Star Trek as communicators now anything is possible!

Knowing apple when this first comes out it will let the driver text and not the passenger as it will be set up for American cars (LHD)

TBH i used to text and drive on old style phones because you could text without even looking at the screen. With an iphone I have to stop to be able to read the message (might be old age)

I'm the same as old phones was a number pad with a raised dot on the 5 so you always know where you was.
