Sprint Drive First is an application that automatically locks a mobile phone when a car is moving more than 10 mph, disabling phone functionality, directing incoming calls to voicemail and silencing distracting alerts for emails and text messages. http://www.sprint.com/drivefirst
I sure hope that it can be programmed to allow emergency numbers like mom and dad to call into the phone while driving, how about when you need to call 911 and get disconnected, oops cant have that operator call you back, guess the killer in the backseat did his job well then. BAD IDEA!!!

Sprint should not charge $2/mo. for a service like this. At most, it should be a one time charge for the app only. So much for getting people to stop texting while driving...

@9EtoDinho10 A notification to the parents phone would stop them if the parent knows they are driving.

@jfn0802 so what exactly would be stopping the kid from using that exit feature every time he/she actually drives?

@9EtoDinho10 it has an exit feature that unlocks the phone but sends a notification that it is in use to the parent

I think this is cool. If i had kids id use it. I like the fact that it tells you when your kid trys to use the phone while in motion! But what if they disable the gps.
