Abstract

An electronic system, a method, and a computer program product support wireless communication with reduced distraction for a driver experiencing challenging driving conditions. The method includes initiating setup of a communication session by the electronic system as host, via the communication subsystem and the communication network, with a first electronic device and second electronic device(s). In response to determining that the first electronic device is being used by a driver in a vehicle, the method includes pausing setup of the communication session to reduce distractions to the driver when potentially in a challenging driving condition. The method includes requesting data about the first electronic device that indicates whether current driving conditions allow the driver to communicate without degrading driving performance. The method includes completing setup of the communication session in response to verifying that the driver is able to communicate while safely operating the vehicle under the current driving conditions.
