Applications For Mobile In The Driving: A Help or a distraction

In recent years there have been multiple campaigns throughout the world against mobile phone use behind the wheel. There is no denying that the phone is a huge distraction when we're behind the wheel, when we hold a telephone conversation diverting our attention moves progressively from the mobile phone road until you reach a point where we enter a situation of real danger, our time reaction is greatly increased and reached to forego up to 50% of signals or stimuli necessary for safe driving. This makes the unexpected on the road can become a hazard to which inexorably, often can not react in time.

Many mobile applications designed for drivers continue to pose a distraction, but as defending their designers and some groups, provided they are used correctly (programmable in standing and letting them run while driving) can help us improve our driving, save money, or even lower our stress levels.
