Causes of Distracted Driving Accidents
Drivers face many distractions, and it is their responsibility to operate their vehicles safely despite interference from:
- Texting
- Cellphones
- Watching a GPS
- Tuning the radio or an iPod
- Eating or drinking
- Looking at children and other passengers in the rear seat
Car drivers are not the only source of distracted driving; studies show that over-the-road truckers who text or talk on cell phones are more likely to have accidents. And because they are distracted, they are less likely to take evasive measures or apply the brakes quickly.
Such distractions can easily cause rear-end accidents because drivers are momentarily unaware that traffic ahead of them has stopped. Accidents in construction zones as a result of distracted driving are also common. Drivers in construction areas need to remain alert to frequent changes in the roadway – something that is more difficult when they are distracted by fighting children or a ringing cell phone.
We invite you to speak with our Kansas City distracted driver accident attorneys if you were injured in a car accident. Our personal injury lawyers will learn about your case, discuss your options, and guide you through the legal process.
