        Distracted driver pose a serious threat not only to preoccupied drivers, but to other motorists on the roadways as well.  Accidents caused by this unsafe practice has been on the rise in recent years due to the widespread use of smart phones to text and post to social media platforms, such as Instagram and Twitter, while driving. Several live streaming videos recorded while the driver is operating a vehicle has become quite popular.  While drivers of all ages may be guilty of driving distracted, studies have found that teenage drivers are especially tempted to use their phone to snap photos or text from the driver's seat.  Because it would be ludicrous to assume that distracted driver accidents are caused only by teen drivers, others drivers are not to be excluded.

        Personal injury lawsuits on the basis of distracted driving are becoming more prevalent. Most cases that involve a teenage driver demonstrate how “smart” phone use while driving can have horrifying consequences. On average, texting takes your eyes off the road for 4.6 seconds. Distraction.gov says that at 55 mph, 4.6 seconds with your eyes on your cell phone is like driving an entire football field blindfolded.

Distracted driving falls into three main categories:

●      Manual: taking your hands off of the wheel

●      Visual: taking your eyes on the road

●      Cognitive: not being mentally present while driving.

While it is safe to say that driving defensively, watching the road, and following the rules of the road does not exclude you from the malfeasance of other, an attorney can help you determine what your options are.  You should reach out to someone who can assist you in determining if you have a claim to seek compensation for any inconvenience you were caused.  Because it is difficult to sometimes see past the injury, a skilled, trained attorney will do a good job assisting you with gaining clarity and figuring out the next step.
