MOBILE TELEPHONE SAFETY SYSTEM WITH MOTION DETECTION

摘要

A cellular telephone service ensures safe user of cellular telephone by charging a subscriber for any of a number of vehicular events. When an event is detected, the system can issue a vocal warning to the subscribing telephone or terminate the call in addition to or instead of a warning. Events can be triggered by any telephone call made from or to a moving vehicle. Events can be triggered by exceeding a certain speed. The system also integrates with traffic-light controlled intersections. Events are provoked by a vehicle carrying an active cell phone entering a device-equipped intersection when the light is either yellow or red. At an intersection equipped with an automatic photographic citation system, the invention provides independent documentation of time and light status of a cell phone equipped vehicle entering the intersection.
