Car key blocks cell phone use while driving

Two US inventors have devised a car key that prevents people from using mobile telephones for chatting or sending text messages while driving.

Once slipped into a car's ignition, the key sends a wireless signal to a driver's mobile phone blocking calls or texting.

The keys are being pitched as a way for parents to stop teenage children from focusing attention on mobile telephones instead of traffic.
