Abstract

A computerized method for determining whether a first wireless communication module of a first network device located within a vehicle is disabled is disclosed. The computerized method includes operations of detecting movement of the first network device at a speed greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, determining that a first communicative coupling with a transceiver using the first wireless communication module of the first network device cannot be established, determining that a second communicative coupling with the transceiver using a second wireless communication module of the first network device has been established, and generating an alert indicating that the first wireless communication module of the first network device is disabled while the first network device is located in the vehicle and in proximity to the transceiver. The first wireless communication module may be a BLUETOOTH® module and the second wireless communication module may be a WI-FI® module.
