Zusammenfassung
Texting while driving is dangerous and illegal in most countries. Since bans are likely to be ineffective due to various reasons, we argue that in-car texting should be made less distracting and dangerous. We propose a semi-automatic status-posting system and present a prototype based on a Pleo. The aim of this paper is to foster discussion on texting while driving and to offer a solution for one specific communication goal, namely staying connected to a social network.
