Well, not quite

"clocks slow down when in an accelerating reference frame"

Moving by itself does not count, since as there is no absolute reference point there is no way to tell who is "moving" and who is "staying still"...
However acceleration can be observed by the effects it it creates on inertia, which is analogus to gravitational gradient.
