Accidents Caused by Distracted, Careless and Inattentive Drivers
More than 2 million people were injured in auto accidents in 2009 according to a recent report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Many of these accidents could have been prevented.
Most auto accidents are the result of some form of driver negligence, including speeding, aggressive driving and inattentive driving. The NHTSA reports that 16 percent of all fatal auto crashes and 21 percent of all auto crashes causing injury are the result of distracted driving.
Distracted driving can take many forms, including:
- Texting
- Talking on a cell phone
- Eating or drinking
- Arguing with passengers
If you or a loved one has been injured by a distracted driver, our personal injury lawyers can help. We have considerable experience in auto accident cases involving distracted driving and other types of driver negligence. We will fully investigate the cause of your accident and vigorously pursue the full compensation you need and deserve.
