Like the answer to every problem it has to be simple and practical, the solution is for a client so i cannot disclose yet but it really is quite brilliant..
Im merely trying to find out if the problem is as widespread as he believes it is, the solution is not a cheap one, if I could not guarantee a ROI I wont take the job on..
It's easy to take money off people by offering a solution, but it needs to past the test of time, be scalable and profitable for him....
It's not that difficult to become rich, how you do it though to safe guard your clientele is important, especially when people rely on you to be honest and fair
I see people doing all the time on my walk to work, I was walking across a crossing and almost got hit becuse the driver was texting and didn't see the red light
On another note I use a Plantronics M20 with my Lumia and it reads out texts, once the text is read I hear reply or done if I say reply I hear a beep and say my message it then reads it back to me and then I say send or cancel or try again
Pretty much standard technology for most smartphones
my colleague was leaving our office a couple of weeks ago and a young man was texting and hit her. she was seriously injured and thankfully, she will be ok...
anyone who does it is completely irresponsible and really should be prosecuted by the law... what on earth did one do before there were cell phones? Oh, I know, just drove the car.
What about texting while riding your bike? On the way to dinner the other night we were behind a dude on his bicycle - riding with no hands, texting away (or maybe playing Angry Birds). No helmet, no hands...no problem??
Terrible behaviour. But, of course, a cyclist doing that is only likely to damage himself (or maybe scratch your car) - vehicle drivers who text are a much greater danger and tend to kill other road users (cyclists, pedestrians, car passengers, etc).
In Switzerland, a drunken cyclist will receive a ban on all his licenses, including any boat and aeroplane licenses. So probably the same for a texting offence.
The police here in Basel seem to think driving whilst chatting on a mobile (not hands free) is a clever thing to do. Loads of drivers do it, and the police watch on.
I find it hard to believe they'llall suddenly switch to enforce-the-law mode if the person is texting.
A couple of years ago, somebody in the US posted a youtube video of a motorcycle cop texting while riding down the street. It made the national news, but was in a state that hadn't passed a no texting law at the time.
