This popular app abides by the motto, \u201cno distractions, no excuses\u201d. It allows you to direct incoming calls to voicemail, mute incoming texts, and send an automatic response that you are driving. A paid version of the app, called Drive Smart Plus, automatically turns on the programme by detecting when the vehicle is moving. Drive Smart has an additional function: it analyses your driving abilities. All you have to do is to download the app, register and record all your trips in order to analyse how you drive. What\u2019s more, certificates are awarded for good driving. In addition, users are able to win awards as well as participate in community challenges.<\/p>\n

Engaging a designated driver is not only safer for times when you are not in a condition to drive, it could also save on unnecessary cab fares and overnight parking charges and fines. WAV has designated drivers who can help transport and ferry users to their destination, whether it\u2019s getting them home after a night out on the town, taking them to the airport, or fetching their kids from school when they are too busy to do so. Unsure of your whereabouts? WAV conveniently auto-detects your current location and links you to the nearest available designated driver. The base charge is $38, with extra charges for additional pick-ups.<\/p>\n

This app has the location of all speed cameras in Singapore and lets you know you when you get within 1 or 2km of it. It also signals if you are travelling above the legal speed limit. As it is designed to work with the phone\u2019s GPS system, you do not have\u00a0 to be online for it to work.<\/p>\n

AA SINGAPORE<\/span><\/b>
\n\"\"
\nThis app simplifies the process of calling for roadside assistance: you don<\/span>\u2019<\/span>t have to describe your breakdown location as it will be clearly indicated via your GPS. This<\/span><\/p>\n

makes it especially helpful if you are stranded in a difficult-to-describe location. Following that, you will receive a verification call from AA Singapore and a service recovery crew will be assigned to you with real-time notification when they are on their way. If you are not in your car, you can tap on the map to set the location of your vehicle or use the input box above the map to enter the address, postal code or landmarks in the vicinity.
