		<description>Each State should provide a hands-free device to every Driver that applys for a license.  This way we can rest assure everyone will have the requirement.</description>

		<description>Hey J, thanks for sending along your idea about jamming. I&#039;d love to have a pocket cell phone jammer myself, silence some of those yapping-away restaurant patrons and whatnot. The big issue here is that jamming is illegal. This has to do with doctors, police, etc., who need to be on call at all times and can&#039;t have their calls blocked. The closest technology that&#039;s in use are apps that route calls to voice mail once the phone knows it&#039;s going a certain speed.</description>

		<description>My idea revolves around using cell phone jamming devices in personally owned cars, in order to rein in people who are tied to their cell phones, texting, and doing all those things that are normally not done while driving.

The setup I thought of would be deemed a requirement if a cell phone was being used for non-business means while driving the car. The device would only block the frequencies of the cell phones, and not other forms of communications such as police, fire, etc.

There would be a dealer activation required, and once activated it would block only the cell phones used in that car. (I don&#039;t know if these change with different providers.  Something to check out.)

I am probably barking up the wrong tree, but I feel that with the proper control, and usage, the idea of a cell phone jammer might prevent a few accidents, and teach people that a cell phone in a car for non-business use, is not a good idea.</description>

		<description>Totally agree with Ben. I don&#039;t talk on the phone while driving, but my husband does...when I am not with him in the car. Laws in states bring them money by giving tickets, but don&#039;t stop all the people from doing it. I would be very happy if cell companies install device actually stopping possibility of using the phone while driving.It will save many lives</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an expert in cellphones (30 years/28 patents). and now I&#039;m an expert witness in cases involving cell phones and wireless devices.

Mostly patent cases but now Texting While Driving Accidents are big.

Let me tell you;  If you are talking on a phone, (hands-free or not) you are impaired at the same level as someone who is drunk at .08.  That&#039;s legally drunk in every state.

I&#039;ve also got a patent that stops people from texting and driving (or even talking and driving) but I wonder if the phone companies would install it in their networks.</description>
