Can't stop phoning while driving? This WILL stop you...

A team of clever people have invented an in-car device that will detect if you're on the phone while driving and shut the handset down. The system works out the position of the phone within the car, and if it's near the steering wheel it's Facebook session over, sunshine. We like this.

The anti-distracted driving application has been co-developed by the Stevens Institute of Technology and Rutgers research university in New Jersey, USA.
