There have been a handful of companies that offer technological “fixes.” However, each of these companies offer software that are designed to be downloaded onto the mobile phone itself. This means that the user has the ability to enable and disable the software at will. As one of our supporters recently noted, “I love your product because you are helping to save me from myself. Without your product I would be tempted to disable anything I loaded on my phone that was designed to stop me from texting and driving.”

This is where Drive Safely Corporation Europe provides the only legitimate solution - a product that does not allow manipulation or disablement by the mobile phone user.

One year ago, before current U.S. Federal legislative efforts to reduce distracted driving, DSC, our US partner, began development of a suite of products entitled “Stay Alert Features (SAFe)”, aimed at reducing motor vehicle accidents related to distracted driving.

Late last year, DSC launched SAFe, which are a number of patent-pending products intended to prevent drivers of motor vehicles from accessing various messenger functions of their mobile phones. The unique algorithm allows passengers to continue to use their emergency services.

The SAFe Product Suite is designed to limit a driver’s messaging, texting, email and browsing ability. For example, if a user attempts to access the phone’s SMS text services (to read, send or receive a text) when the phone is in a moving vehicle, Anti-Texting “I love your product because you are helping to save me from myself. Without your product I would be tempted to disable anything I loaded on my phone that was designed to stop me from texting and driving.”Technology is initiated and a screen advises the user that “Texting While Driving is Illegal,” and then asks the following question: “Are you a driver?”

If the answer is “YES,” the phone’s SMS texting capabilities are disabled until the phone has been at rest for a designated period of time.

If the user answers “NO,” then Anti-Texting Technology will allow the user to access the phone’s SMS texting capabilities only if the user is able to input a series of letters, numbers and symbols within a restricted time frame, a process called the “Attention Validation Sequence.”

The Attention Validation Sequence screen displays randomly assigned letters, numbers and symbols. In order to avoid immediate disablement of the phone’s messenger functions, the user must input the data exactly as shown in a very short time period.

Distracted driving legislation enjoys unanimous support from an overwhelming number of Americans, federal and state legislators from both parties, the mobile carriers, and various advocates group. The problem lies in the ability of state and local officers to enforce distracted driving legislation. Prior to DSC’s revolutionary technology, there was no easy solution to this problem. DSC’s enforcement solution gives legislators the ability to incorporate into Device is Locked Screenlaw a provision and/or language that allows municipalities the opportunity to license technology in order to enforce distracted driving legislation. This is also true for Europe.

DSCE has no competitors. Other companies employ technology that can be bypassed or disabled at the discretion of the user. DSC’s SAFe suite of products is not a software application that is downloaded on a user’s phone. Rather, it is intended to be broadcast by each mobile phone operator thereby making it impossible for a user to disable or bypass.

DSC’s SAFe suite of products is designed to run on all mobile phones and is compatible with all mobile operators.

The software is in beta release and available for demonstration by appointment by contacting DSCE.
