Many cars have seat sensors - so disable the phone if there is only the driver's seat occupied

And watch as MPG drops when people start carrying 100 pounds of whatever in the passenger seat.
My car's sensor will trigger on a semi-decent sized watermelon. Drives me fucking insane - it's a Volvo so it really explodes when it triggers when going fast...

It's like somebody just fired a missile at you -.-
