A Novel Approach to Avoid Mobile Phone Accidents While Driving and Cost- Effective Fatalities

This paper presents the results of mobile application which helps in preventing mobile phone accidents to the great extent. An electronic circuit Transmitter and Receiver block also designed to detect the driver's mobile phone automatically once he or she starts the vehicle and the circuit will switch OFF and then ON the mobile phone without human intervention with the help of 5 pin relay in order to start the application automatically. The authors further extend the research by comparing the obtained results after installing this application with a recent study of the US National Safety Council, conducted on 2010. The authors also show how far this application helps in reducing economic losses in India.
