System and method for preventing mobile device communication
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for preventing communication using a mobile communication device comprising:
- enabling a motion detection process;
detecting by a processor with the motion detection process at a first instance the mobile device is in motion;
disabling the motion detection process in response to detecting the mobile device is in motion;
detecting an attempted communication via the mobile device;
re-enabling the motion detection process in response to detecting the attempted communication;
detecting by the processor with the motion detection process at a second instance if the mobile device is in motion; and
if the mobile device is detected by the processor at the second instance in motion, disabling the attempted communication, and if the mobile device is detected by the processor at the second instance not in motion, enabling the attempted communication.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for preventing communication using a mobile communication device is provided. The method includes enabling a motion detection process and detecting with the motion detection process at a first instance the mobile device is in motion. The motion detection process is disabled in response to detecting the mobile device is in motion. An attempted communication is detected via the mobile device, and the motion detection process is re-enabled in response to detecting the attempted communication. The method further includes detecting with the motion detection process at a second instance if the mobile device is in motion. If the mobile device is detected at the second instance in motion, the attempted communication is disabled. If the mobile device is detected at the second instance not in motion, the attempted communication is enabled.
