Accidents Caused by Distracted Drivers

Most motor vehicle accidents are caused by some form of driver negligence. One common type of driver negligence is distracted driving. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that 16 percent of all fatal auto crashes and 21 percent of all autos crashes causing injury are the result of distracted driving.

Drivers who fail to remain alert while driving expose other drivers and pedestrians to an unacceptable risk of harm. Common distractions that divert the attention of drivers include:

• Texting
• Talking on a cell phone
• Eating or drinking
• Grooming or applying makeup
• Use of GPS and other electronic devices

If you or a loved one has been injured by a distracted driver, contact Floyd & Horrigan today to schedule a free consultation.
