How would this blocking technology discern between a driver's cell phone and a passengers? It wouldn't? FAIL!!!

At least then the phone would be out of the driver's hands so they could be on the wheel and his eyes on the road.

But, sadly, telling you how I did it would jeopardize my patent-ability.

You'll just have to wait until it's implemented.
