Agent App Can Save Your Teen
For parents, the idea of their kids sending text messages while driving is a scary proposition:  Not only is the common habit dangerous, but it’s even more dangerous when you add novice and inexperienced drivers to the mix. That’s one of the reasons why the creators of Agent — a free app for Android phones — developed an innovative way to prevent texting and driving and ultimately save lives. With Agent, both young and older drivers are automatically shifted into “hands-free” texting mode without having to remember not to text and drive. The app does this by intelligently detecting when a user is driving.
