The device allows police in event of a car crash, to scan your phone to see if you were on your phone at the time of the crash.<\/p>\n<p>Gov.  Cuomo has announced that he wants a traffic safety review to look at the Textalyzer and its impacts, if police were allowed to use it in New York State.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that people are really split over the textalyzer of whether it&#8217;s a good idea or not.  Some think that it can improve safety and keep drivers honest.  Some have concerns about whether it will give accurate information to police. <\/p>\n<p>. . .<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My concern immediately would be against illegal searches and seizures.  Under the Fourth Amendment, there is no warrant requirement provided under this textalyzer and I just don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a good thing to have police going through a person&#8217;s phone without the idea of a judge signing off,&#8221; said criminal defense attorney Mike Taheri.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WGRZ: Cuomo orders state review of &#8216;textalyzer&#8217; by Jeff Prevail:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cell-phones"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28324"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28324\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28325,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28324\/revisions\/28325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
