A mobile communication device includes a main wireless transceiver unit for sending and receiving wireless signals, an additional wireless transceiver unit for sending and receiving wireless signals, a motion detection unit, connected to a processing unit and arranged to send a motion signal to a processing unit, and the processing unit, arranged to receive the motion signal and to determine therefrom a parameter representative of a velocity of the mobile communication device, wherein the processing unit is arranged and constructed to turn on the additional wireless transceiver unit when the parameter exceeds a first threshold value. Furthermore, the processing unit is arranged and constructed to turn off the additional wireless transceiver unit when the parameter representative of a velocity remains below a second threshold value for a predetermined period of time.
