A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising computer executable instructions that when executed by a computing device cause said computing device to effectuate operations comprising:

• receiving an indication that a first mobile device is associated with a first driver of a vehicle associated with a vehicular system when the first mobile comes into proximity with the vehicular system;
• determining that a second mobile device is associated with the first driver of the vehicle, wherein the second mobile device is coupled with the vehicular system;
• based on the indication received from the first mobile device, instructing the vehicular system to cause the first mobile device and the second mobile device to enter a mode;
• detecting an override from the first mobile device;
• and
• responsive to detecting the override, instructing the vehicular system to release the second mobile device from the mode.

A method comprising:

• communicatively connecting with a first mobile device when the first mobile device comes into close proximity with a vehicular system of the vehicle;
• receiving from the first mobile device information comprising an indication of a first driver associated with the first mobile device;
• determining that a second mobile device is associated with the first driver of the vehicle, wherein the second mobile device is coupled with the vehicular system;
• based on the information received from the first mobile device, instructing the vehicular system to cause the first mobile device and the second mobile device to enter a mode;
• detecting an override to the mode change from the first mobile device;
• and
• responsive to detecting the override, instructing the vehicular system to release the second mobile device from the mode.
