Among the new apps showcased at Macworld in San Francisco this week was "TeenAgree," which permits parents to receive alerts when their teen driver goes too fast, texts while driving or ventures beyond a certain boundary.
Please tell us what you think about it in our reader poll below.
The app – which costs $4.99 to download and costs $4.99 per month – is offered as a "safe driving contract" which teens and parents each install on their smart phones. Asked if teens hate it, TeenAgree co-founder Nathan Ooley answered, "Yes they do," according to the San Francisco Chronicle. "You don't want it when you're young. But when we're parents, it's a different story."
