Press Release Body = The invention will help drivers around the country prevent a car accident regardless of the type of weather condition. The invention, called the Co-Pilot by inventor Marlon Munoz, generates safety related voice messages that engages the driver of the vehicle in safe driving. The gadget contains over 50 safety related messages that can be played in sequence or at random in intervals of 2, 4 and 8 minutes or 4, 10, and 20 minutes. The messages come standard or can be customized to fit geographic locations or driver preferences. Another feature of the Co-Pilot is the lack of a on and off button. When asked about this particular feature, Mr. Munoz explained that for many people, driving is a lifestyle. The Co-Pilot makes you pay attention to your driving, even when you ignore it. Thus, changing your lifestyle.
Mr. Munoz sites a 2004 report that shows the state of New York having 1,493 traffic fatalities compared to 42,636 in the nation. He reiterates that people are not paying attention on the road. He states that distractions like the cell phones are part of the problem. Mr. Munoz points to a 2002 DOT report that found \"over a half a million drivers are holding cell phones at any given time.\" Just think, he says, that was in 2002, imagine what the number is today.
