What if you are the passenger?

I am guessing there is no way to tell if you are the driver of the passenger. In my opinion it is a good idea and a bad idea at the same time.

If you are the passenger, you are just S.O.L. Make sure that you keep a personal phone. I see so many individuals turn over their blackberries which they personally purchased onto their company's BES. I just shake my head at them.
