Claim:
1. A safety control system for vehicles comprising: a telematic device running at least one software application and having at least one input and at least one output; at least one sensor operable to sense at least one condition related to a driving environment and data providing information indicating at least one distracting feature for at least one software application; a controller in communication with the sensor and the data and the software application and the telematic device, the controller configured to prevent the at least one application output from being provided to the driver in the original format of the at least one output and to provide the at least one output to the driver in a different format, and wherein the controller controls when at least one input into the software application and at least one output from the software application are provided to the driver so that prior to permitting the driver to access the input or prior to providing an output from the software application on the telematic device to the driver, the controller determines whether said at least one condition is within a threshold and permits the driver to access said input or provides said output to said driver only when said at least one condition is within the threshold.
