Manage Mobility, a national management and logistics firm for wireless services, has entered into a partnership relation with WebSafety, Inc., a provider of software solutions that help to prevent incidences of distracted driving, to utilize its CellSafety mobile application.

The CellSafety mobile application disables texting and emailing in a moving vehicle in order for Manage Mobility’s enterprise, public sector, and government clients to increase their employee safety and significantly reduce operational liability.

To electronically detect when a car is moving at speeds above 10 mph, CellSafety uses proprietary technology. The application also prohibits the driver’s ability to send or read text and email messages or utilize the phone Web browser.

It works on all four major wireless carriers and works with the BlackBerry, Android (News - Alert) and Symbian wireless operating systems.

Manage Mobility is one of today’s premier telecommunications consulting firms. Many of its wireless services come at little to no cost to end users; offering clients a more efficient way to manage their wireless portfolios.

The bundling of mobile technologies and network services to create new solutions that will help change how mobility is being used in the workplace is one of the Manage Mobility’s key initiatives.

This is the first time that WebSafety has aligned with a telecom company in order to provide an actionable solution to the problem of distracted driving.

“Organizations that enact such policies prohibiting texting and emailing while driving take the extra step to assure that company phones cannot perform this dangerous function,” said Stacy Chisum, Vice President of Sales at Manage Mobility. “CellSafety will not only play a key role in reducing employer liability, but more importantly, it will help make our roadways exponentially safer.”

“Because of new laws restricting texting and emailing while driving, employers and federal agencies, particularly those whose employees are required to drive as part of their job descriptions, are consequently facing higher liability for vehicular accidents caused by the improper use of wireless devices while driving,” said Rowland Day, CEO of WebSafety, Inc. “CellSafety effectively enforces texting-while-driving bans and can decrease an employer’s risk of being held vicariously responsible in civil court cases.”
