New Apple Patent Seeks To Prevent Drivers From Texting While Behind The Wheel

Apple’s already got a patent in the works for technology to keep distracted pedestrians from hurting themselves while texting and walking, and now the company’s got its eyes on the road. Because you should too, instead of texting and driving.

Apple’s CarPlay technology already allows iPhone users to make phone calls, navigate, listen to music and whatnot with just a tap or voice command, but drivers might still be tempted to text while driving.

To nip that practice in the bud, Apple’s new patent for a lock-out mechanism would disable smartphone functions like texting while you’re driving, reports PCMag.

Apple should come out with an anti-libtard app. Oops, that would kill their customer base.
