As the popularity of cell phone usage and texting continues to increase, so too do the dangers associated with these activities. Many people have become so engrossed in their cell phone activities that they cannot stop interacting with friends, even while driving. This trend has led to serious auto accidents and injuries. Some states have even gone so far as to incorporate laws against cell phone usage while in a vehicle in order to combat the damages this activity presents to other drivers.  If you or a loved one has been injured due to a negligent driver, you need the Law Offices of David Kohm to fight for your rights.

With all the technology available to us, it’s no wonder how drivers get distracted while driving. Among the top distractions involved in auto accidents are changing the radio station, texting or checking email on a phone or tablet, or trying to read a GPS map. These activities have become more and more dangerous because they take the driver’s attention away from the road and other drivers. Accidents can happen in the matter of seconds, and if a driver is distracted, they will most likely miss the warning signs and be involved in an accident.
