Accident deaths cause ‘Pokemon Go’ to be
disabled while driving

The popular smartphone game “Pokemon Go” will now be disabled in moving cars so that all passengers and the driver will not be able to play when the vehicle is traveling above a certain speed, after Niantic, the company that created the game, was asked by a local government and police in Japan.

The change happened globally on Monday, after the Ichinomiya Municipal Government and the local police demanded that Niantic take safety precautions because of the death of two people in car accidents caused by drivers playing the game.

Players can’t use Pokestops to get items at driving speed anymore. Niantic had already stopped Pokemon from appearing in the game when the user is traveling over a certain speed.
