Getting to know the "Do Not Disturb While Driving" iPhone feature
iPhone owners seeking a little peace and quiet during their commute, try out the "Do Not Disturb While Driving" feature. The application is available on devices using iOS 11, and Apple has a handy how-to guide for using the feature. There is some evidence the app can reduce iPhone use in the car. Via Insurance Business America, the online auto-coverage quoting service EverQuote surveyed iPhone users last September and October and found that device use while driving decreased eight percent with the Do Not Disturb function employed.
Don't let an ice dam ruin the final weeks of winter
We've reached the homestretch of winter, but that does not mean the risk of ice-related damage has passed just yet.

The resulting water has nowhere to go, leaving it to leak inside the house, potentially damaging walls and other fixtures. Travelers Insurance offers some helpful tips on how to prevent ice dams.
