Distracted Driving Lawyer

Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of car accidents. While many things distract drivers, cellphone use has been shown to be the biggest culprit.

The National Safety Council has reported that cellphone use causes over 1.6 million car accidents every year. Approximately 330,000 of these accidents are caused by texting while driving.

The dangers cell phones pose to drivers led the state of Indiana to enact strict rules limiting cellphone use in cars. In Indiana, drivers under the age of 21 are prohibited from using cell phones at all while behind the wheel. This includes a ban on hands-free cell use and using cell phones for things like GPS. Drivers over the age of 21 are banned from texting while driving.

Unfortunately, the law doesn’t stop many drivers from talking on their cellphones, texting, checking Facebook, and engaging in other distracting behaviors while behind the wheel — and causing car wrecks.
