Why Texting & Driving is Such a Dangerous Activity

A distracted driver is a dangerous driver, there is no contesting that fact. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) believes that there are three primary ways a driver can become distracted.

Texting behind the wheel contributes to so many car accidents – between 20% and 40%, according to several estimates – because it engages a driver in all three forms of distraction. Picking up a phone, for even five seconds, can distract a driver long enough to have their car traverse the length of a football field without the driver paying attention to what is in front and around them.

Proving Liability in a Texting & Driving Crash

Most drivers know that texting while driving is illegal, and yet they participate in the dangerous behavior all the same. After a collision is caused through their negligence, a distracted driver may attempt to hide their illegal actions behind lies and exaggerations, claiming that they were not texting at the time of the crash.

In such situations, it may be necessary to go to extra lengths to discover the truth. This most often means getting access to phone records through a court order to see cellphone activity just before the accident occurred. If there is data that shows texts, videos, and apps were being accessed, it can be used as evidence in your favor.
