do not distrub while driving problems

I have recently notice that since the ios update to 15, I'm having problems using the do not disturb I'm driving feature?

When I turn it on, and then turn on bluetooth for my car radio, I am, or used to send automatically a txt message reply to anyone that I was unable to answer texts because I'm driving, but when I am driving, I am still getting text messages?

I am wondering if this has anything to do with a new feature called "focus"? If so, can I delete this feature as I personally cannot see it being any use to me..although I really haven't had a good look at it to be honest.

Can anyone help me sort this issue out please as I do a lot of driving and I would rather not see text messages several hours after I have stopped driving. The whole Do Not Disturb seems to be mucked up and changed somehow and I'm not sure how to make it work as it used to prior to the update to 15/

Please help.

Cheers all

I don't use DND put I thought it would allow people in your favorites to still reach you.

Have a little patience, everyone here is another user like you sharing our knowledge. 1 hour after you first asked the question you deleted Focus. You probably deleted the very function you wanted to restore, because Focus seems to be an extended set of DND functions which includes the old DND while driving.
