DESCRIPTION:Distracted driving is a complex problem that requires a technic
 al solution. Over 3\,000 people are killed in\nautomobile accidents every 
 year in the U.S. alone directly resulting from drivers distracted by their
  mobile\ndevices. There has been a tremendous social push to educate drive
 rs on the problem and yet many continue to\ntext behind the wheel. RF tech
 nology can detect and deter distracted motorists from picking up their mob
 ile\nphones and ultimately save countless lives.\nScott Schober is the Pre
 sident and CEO of Berkeley Varitronics Systems (BVS)\, a 45 year-old New J
 ersey-based privately held\ncompany and leading provider of advanced\, wor
 ld-class wireless test and security solutions. Since the beginning of Mr. 
 Schober’s\nBVS tenure in 1989\, the company’s product line of wireless
  test and security instruments has increased to over 100 products with a\n
 core focus on Wi-Fi\, Cellular\, WiMAX\, LTE\, IoT and advanced radio devi
 ces. As an experienced software engineer\, Schober has\ndeveloped cellular
  test instruments used for measuring\, optimizing and plotting signal cove
 rage\, primarily for the initial cellular buildout\nthroughout the United 
 States. Scott’s recent focus has been development (patent pending) of BV
 S’ cell phone detection tools\, used\nto enforce a ‘no cell phone poli
 cy’ in various markets including transportation\, government\, corporate
 \, military\, educational\,\ncorrectional and law enforcement. Thousands o
 f these security tools have been deployed throughout every state in the U.
 S. and around\nthe world.\nMr. Schober is a highly sought after subject ex

 Business\, Fox News\, Good Morning America\, Inside Edition\, MSNBC and ma
 ny more. His security advice is\nheard on dozens of radio stations such as
  National Public Radio\, Sirius XM Radio\, Bloomberg Radio\, and The Peggy

 ussing wireless technology and its role in the current Cybersecurity\nbrea
 ches along with his vision for best practices to stay safe in the future.
