1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wearable computing device that is located in a vehicle, an indication of movement associated with the wearable computing device;
determining, from inputting the indication of the movement into a machine learning system, a degree of likelihood that a user of the wearable computing device is driving the vehicle;
responsive to determining that the degree of likelihood satisfies a threshold, determining that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle; and
responsive to determining that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle, performing, by the wearable computing device, one or more operations that prevent the user from accessing at least one feature of the wearable computing device while the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle.

Abstract
A wearable computing device is described that detects an indication of movement associated with the wearable computing device when a user of the wearable computing device detected being located within a moving vehicle. Based at least in part on the indication of movement, a determination is made that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the moving vehicle. An operation is performed based on the determination that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the moving vehicle.

11. A wearable computing device comprising at least one processor configured to:
-
receive, an indication of movement associated with the wearable computing device while the wearable computing device is located in a vehicle; determine, from inputting the indication of the movement into a machine learning system, a degree of likelihood that a user of the wearable computing device is driving the vehicle; responsive to determining that the degree of likelihood satisfies a threshold, determine that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle; and responsive to determining that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle, perform one or more operations that prevent the user from accessing at least one feature of the wearable computing device while the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause at least one processor of a wearable computing device to:
-
receive, an indication of movement associated with the wearable computing device while the wearable computing device is located in a vehicle; determine, from inputting the indication of the movement into a machine learning system, a degree of likelihood that a user of the wearable computing device is driving the vehicle; responsive to determining that the degree of likelihood satisfies a threshold, determine that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle; and responsive to determining that the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle, perform one or more operations that prevent the user from accessing at least one feature of the wearable computing device while the user of the wearable computing device is currently driving the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
