#### ![Cellphone ban](https://www.dreyev.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website%20Page%20Images/Cellphone%20ban.png?width=118&name=Cellphone%20ban.png)

#### State Bans Don't Work

State bans on the use of cell phones in cars don't seem to be effective as accidents caused by distracted driving continue to rise.

 

#### ![Mobile app](https://www.dreyev.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website%20Page%20Images/Mobile%20app.png?width=118&name=Mobile%20app.png)

#### Mobile Apps Are Insufficient

Mobile applications that intercept distracting calls or the use of apps are easy to circumvent and distractions can also come from sources other than mobile phones.

#### ![Passenger car v4](https://www.dreyev.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website%20Page%20Images/Passenger%20car%20v4.png?width=118&name=Passenger%20car%20v4.png)

#### Front Seat Passengers

The old-fashioned way to solve the problem is to have a front seat passenger who 1) is aware of sudden driving risks, 2) can tell whether the driver is paying attention, and 3) will warn the driver when needed.

### Walter Wurm

#### The inspiration behind dreyev.

My grandfather, Walter, was an incredibly passionate, safe, and reliable car driver. Born in 1907 in a little town in Austria, he drove 1.7 M miles over the next 50 years, crossing Europe as a very entrepreneurial CEO of a dynamic leather manufacturing business. He always preferred driving himself to meetings over flying, even as flying started becoming more widely available.

He drove top-of-the-line Audi, Mercedes, BMW cars, enjoying the latest technologies, and sharing the pleasure of the ride with his passengers.

As I turned 18 and switched from my beloved motorcycle to driving a car, I remember that I could not wait to showcase to him, my hero, how good a driver I had become.

I remember rehearsing my trip around town several times before he sat in as a passenger (a rare event…!). I did my best to drive as smoothly and precisely as I could. At the end of the tour, he told me: “Roberto, you have good skills, but you look around too much.”

His remark hurt, as I was convinced that I had done a stellar job showing my driving skills. But later, I realized why he was so concerned about me putting attention to the road, all the time. That inspired us to name our driver solution platform after him.

### Virtual Passenger

#### **Walter mimics the behavior of a dependable passenger**

Walter can evaluate the risk and match it against the level of attention exhibited by the driver.  The risk is associated with the current speed, acceleration, braking, cornering, pavement, weather and vehicles, people or objects on the road.
