unfortunately not as simple as that. phones do not always have GPS turned on. you don't have "speed" data. internal accelerometer is for angle or bump detection.

even if u were to have speed data, somehow u have to identify the driver of the vehicle and not a passenger. otherwise all busses, trains, taxis would be mobile-less.
