Mojo, a new app focused on preventing distracted driving was released byBoston-based TrueMotion. The app automatically tracks trips and how much time is spent driving without distraction. The safer the drive, the more points earned, which can be redeemed to win cash and prizes. The app’s launch coincides with Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and part of TrueMotion’s overall mission to make the roads safer for all.
After downloading and installing the app, Mojo runs automatically in the background and tracks each trip taken. Based on the frequency of distraction, which Mojo defines as Swiping and Typing; Handheld Calls; and Handsfree Calls, a driver receives an overall Mojo score. The score adjusts up or down after each trip based on how much or how little the driver was distracted by his or her phone.
Each minute driven without distraction counts as a point. When 300 points are earned, the driver can spin the prize wheel, where he or she can win cash – a $5 Amazon gift card.
