Phones are a deadly distraction on the road. The National Safety Council reports that cell phone usage     while driving leads to 1.6 million crashes each year. But there’s no denying they’re also critical when you’re lost in an unknown city or need to answer an important call/text. Existing GPS and phone mounts try to provide safer solutions, but the driver still has to look away from the road to use them. A split second is all it takes for an accident to occur.
