Device keeps the family off the phone when driving - Tech Lab Plus - Business - The Boston Globe

Sign of the times
"Anyway, you register your cellCONTROL at the Scosche website and then plug the device into the car’s OBD-II port; cellCONTROL uses a Bluetooth wireless radio signal to block your phone so you can’t place calls or send texts if it detects that the car is in motion. The device lets you block one phone, or if you pay $5 a month, you can block up to six, just by registering the number of each phone. So you can ensure that nobody in your family can use the phone while driving.
Obviously, one of your kids could just unplug the ­cellCONTROL. But you’ll get an e-mail if that happens."
