Car key stops teenagers from using mobile phones while driving

Car key stops teenagers from using mobile phones while drivingThere’s nothing worse then a driver who is too busy running their mouth on a cellphone and not paying attention to the road. Or the other cars. Teenage drivers in particular love to get distracted by their mobile phones. Well, University of Utah engineers have designed a wireless car key device that stops users from talking on their cell phone or sending text messages while behind the wheel.

Each driver of a car will have a separate key device. When the key is extended from the device, it emits a signal that puts the teenagers phone in “Driving Mode,” so that they can’t use it and kill you. In driving mode the phone will display a stop sign and hopefully the death loving teen will get in the habit of leaving the phone alone while driving.

SnorePro shuts you up with an electric shockAre you or your spouse a snorer? Let them know that you’ve had enough of their noise by buying them the SnorePro SP600. It knows when you’re snoring away and sends a mild electric shock to get you to shut your pie-hole. It even features a built-in snore counter.

The idea is to train snorers to stop by using biofeedback. There’s no pricing info, but the site says SnorePro is “coming soon.” And it’s guaranteed to be the feel good gadget of the year for those who sleep with snorers. IF it works.
