Accident deaths cause Pokemon Go' to be disabled while driving

1____The popular smartphone game "Pokemon Go" will now

be disabled in moving cars so that all passengers and the driver

will not be able to play when the vehicle is traveling above a

4 certain speed, after Niantic, the company that created the

game, was asked by a local government and police in Japan.

The change happened globally on Monday, after the

7 Ichinomiya Municipal Government and the local police

demanded that Niantic take safety precautions because of

the death of two people in car accidents caused by drivers

10 playing the game.

Players can't use Pokestops to get items at driving speed

anymore. Niantic had already stopped Pokemon from appearing

13 in the game when the user is traveling over a certain speed.
