The LG Breathalyzer PhoneMore.
The phone has a built-in breathalyzer and is selling very well in Korea. Indeed, given that between 15 and 30% of all road deaths (depending on your country) involve drivers over the legal blood alcohol limits(..) "this phone will not be launching in the US this year, and at this time there are no plans to bring it over to the US at all. The original article announcing this phone was incorrect."
Apparently this phone will show a "car crashing" when your alcohol level is above a certain limit, and will also let you block (special someone) numbers from being called if you're too drunk.

I think the GPS in cell phones should be used to limit conversations to a minute or so if you're going over 25 miles an hour. Or as some friends suggested, If you're on a cell phone while an accident happens you should automatically take the blame, even if you were hit from behind.
