Google's Pixel 2 phones fight distracted driving
You don't have to own an iPhone or Samsung phone to get a modern handset that keeps your eyes on the road. The 9to5Google team has discovered that the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL include a buried feature in their software (namely, Ambient Services) that automatically invokes a Do Not Disturb mode when it detects that you're moving at high speed, much like what you see in iOS 11. You'll want to turn this off if you're only a passenger, but it could be very helpful if you're behind the wheel and don't want your phone pinging you every time there's an Instagram like or Twitter mention.
