How do you use the Do Not Disturb feature while driving on iPhone?

Is there a setting that I need to change to turn on the Do Not Disturb feature on my iPhone? I would love to have my phone set so that I don’t get texts while I’m driving, but I can’t figure out how to turn on the feature.

In order to activate the Do Not Disturb feature while you’re driving, follow these steps on
your iPhone
:
  1. Open your iPhone settings.
  2. Select Do Not Disturb.
  3. Select Activate.
Once you do this, your phone should automatically sense motion and activate the Do Not Disturb feature whenever you’re in the car. You can also select contacts that are still allowed to contact you when you have this feature on in case of an emergency.
