Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives sensor data from a wearable device associated with a user of the UE, determines that the user is driving a vehicle based on the sensor data, and enables a Do Not Disturb While Driving mode of the UE based on the determination that the user is driving the vehicle.
