eBrake Technologies Inc., which provides a device-locking app,  announced a new partnership with the British Columbia Automobile Association (BCAA), one of BC’s most trusted organizations with a long history of keeping British Columbians safe on the road.

The partnership will see BCAA’s road assistance drivers use the eBrake solution in their vehicles to advocate safety and raise awareness of the dangers of distracted driving.

“BCAA and our drivers put safety first at all times and we are pleased to adopt the eBrake solution and encourage other fleet drivers to do the same,” say Grant Stockwell, BCAA Senior VP and Chief Automotive Officer.

“We’re extremely excited to join forces with an industry leader like BCAA that shares eBrake’s vision of protecting roads, communities, and families against distracted driving,” says Troy Spracklin, Founder & CEO of eBrake Technologies.

Distracted driving is now considered by most to be a global epidemic. Nearly 1.6 million people die and 50 million are injured each year from crashes due to distracted driving.

eBrake Technologies Inc. is a mobile application development company founded June 2016 in Vancouver, Canada.

eBrake is a technology that automatically locks the driver’s device when motion is detected but grants passengers unrestricted use. eBrake is currently available to fleets and insurance companies globally.
