New Device Stops Teens from Texting & Driving

DriveAlertNow, the Android and iPhone app that's putting an end to distracted driving among teens, has announced a partnership with City Wide Auto Group.

Nearly half of all teens text and email while driving, and 11 of those children die every day. However, by installing the DriveAlertNow device, the driver cannot answer the phone, text, or email while they are in a car.

The DriveAlertNow device holds all texts while the car is moving, sending a custom auto-reply to incoming texts. Phone usage, browsing the internet, and whether or not the seat belt is engaged arms the administrator with tangible evidence of responsible driving. By installing this password-protected app on their children's phones, parents can make their children better drivers and more cognizant of the devastating consequences distracted driving presents.

Listen in as Todd Davis, CEO of Drive Alert joins host Melanie Cole, MS, to discuss DriveAlertNow and how it can help save your teenager's life.
