Since the beginning of July, the General Directorate of Traffic in USA has launched a particular campaign that is causing more controversy than all road and mobile phone users would like. The reality is that at 8:00 p.m. on July 1, many users started receiving questionable taste notifications through the DGT app.
This is the controversial new campaign with which the DGT intends to raise awareness among users in the midst of exit operations, and which is extremely unpleasant. We show you what this new campaign is all about and, above all, how you can avoid receiving these unpleasant messages.
“When you kill someone on the road”, is the message that appears in the notification. When you receive it, you automatically feel surprised, something strange goes through your body and does not go away until you check the sender of this notification, the General Directorate of Traffic, DGT for its acronym.
The text continues: Drinking and driving never mix. Under the influence of alcohol, driving errors multiply and the risk of (…) increases.
The notification is blind, if you tap on it, He pretends to open the shameful application that DGT has designed to have our driver’s license and vehicle data at your fingertips, but it doesn’t lead anywhere. It’s a phantom notification and it has only one purpose, to create discomfort.
DGT has crossed the line, television or press campaigns are one thing, and even the “misinformation” signs with which they annoy you when driving on the motorway, the effectiveness of which has been questioned on many occasions by automotive experts like Juan Francisco Calero.
Anyway, notifying us on the device in such a trivial way seems to me an intrusion into our privacy, Curious if we take into account that half the time the DGT application does not allow us to connect, its servers are down or simply did not notify us of communication. This time Pere Navarro has been crowned, he will never cease to amaze us.
