HOW DRIVEASSIST WORKS The DriveAssist™ software running on the subscriber’s mobile phone automatically determines the driving context of the user. Once it's sure that you're driving the software signals to the Aegis ContextEngine™ that you're in motion. All calls and all text messages outbound are then mediated from the mobile network, except for 911 calls which are automatically accepted.
