Abstract:
According to one aspect of one embodiment of the present invention, a safety control system for using applications in vehicles, includes, a communication device having at least one of an input accessible from within the vehicle and an output communicated within the vehicle, at least one sensor operable to sense at least one condition related to vehicle operation, and data about distraction features of a running application, to and a controller communicated with the sensor and the communication device to selectively suppress at least one of said input and said output in response to a sensed parameter of said at least one condition being outside of a threshold. When an input is suppressed, the driver is prevented from accessing or inputting information into the communication device. When an output is suppressed, communication between the device and the driver of a vehicle is suppressed to, among other things, avoid distracting the driver during certain driving situations or conditions relating to the driver, vehicle and/or environment.

Claim (Index 17):
A telematics system for a passenger vehicle, wherein the passenger vehicle has a bus and the telematics system is operable by a driver of the vehicle, the telematics system comprising:\n a first mode of operation having at least one feature wherein the at least one feature includes an output, and a reduced distractions mode of operation; the telematics system configured to be operatively coupled with a cellular phone; the telematics system configured to be operatively coupled with a web server; the telematics system being operatively coupled to the vehicle's bus and being configured to receive at least one of a vehicle transmission information and a vehicle movement information from the bus; the telematics system configured to switch between the first mode and the reduced distractions mode, as a result of at least one predetermined condition being met by the at least one of the transmission information and the vehicle movement information; and, wherein the telematics system, while operating in the reduced distractions mode of operation, is configured to disable the at least one feature, suppress at least a portion of the output and provide at least one indicia to the driver that the reduced distractions mode of operation is active and that at least one feature of the telematics system is disabled.
