Splitsecnd is a new gadget that instantly connects drivers to emergency responders in the event of an accident or sudden stop. The small device plugs into a car's cigarette lighter and works using GPS. If Splitsecnd detects a sudden stop or crash, operators from the company's call center will automatically call. Should you require emergency assistance the dispatcher will send your coordinates to emergency personnel.
Splitsecnd is great for those who drive older cars that don't come equipped with similar services such as OnStar. Its ease of use means that even elderly drivers will be able to take full advantage of its services. Splitsecnd is currently being sold for $199.95 and requires a cellular plan of $14.95 a month to run.
