Phafe App
Phafe Just one more way your PHONE can keep you SAFE.
Every year thousands people are involved in accidents relating the use of mobile phones. What if we could change that?
What if instead of a hazard we could use the mobile phone capabilities to reduce accidents, by completely rethinking the way we drive and focusing on safety.
Phafe is a simple application that takes away the distracting features of the phone while you drive. After firing the application your phone will no longer receive calls, messages or notifications. The screen will go mute and it will politely answer with an auto reply. It will also use the government datasets to alert your from black spots on real time and give instant, current and relevant updates about fire emergencies and road closures; using unobtrusive icon messages to let you know if you are in a hazard zone, a common speeding street, or an accident prone area. As well as if you are speeding, or if there is an accident or a road block ahead. Also the phone won't be able to go back to its normal state unless you stop the car entirely, so you will never be tempted to make a quick call, check the map or answer a text message while you are driving.
Lets start thinking differently, safely. There is no rush and we should be working to avoid accidents instead of being involved in them.
