And what about passengers wanting to use a phone at over 15mph? People riding on a bus? On a train?
If they can triangulate your phone they can tell if it's moving. And most modern phones are coming with GPS chips.

Bus or train? Who cares! They didn't have phones for years and no one cared. Just saying. So your willing to give up peoples lives so they can yak or text on buses and trains? Airplanes isn't a problem since they could reset the phone to work again once the speed exceeds 200mph.
