Nearly every U.S. state has either passed some form of text messaging ban for drivers or taken a proposed law under consideration. This signals widespread recognition of a problem some studies indicate rivals drunk driving in the dangers it presents.
Phoenix was an "early adopter" of a texting-while-driving ordinance, but Arizona was still evaluating state legislation as of early 2011. While some level of texting ban appears probable, any law passed in the near future is unlikely to also ban talking on a handheld cell phone — or other distractions ranging from GPS system use to setting the car stereo, applying makeup or dealing with pets while driving.
Knowledge and Resourcefulness to Prove Driver Distraction
If you or a loved one has been injured by a distracted driver, our Phoenix texting accident attorneys will work to prove exactly that. Proving this type of negligence can increase the value of your case, especially given that:
- Cell phone use leaves a record that can be brought forth as evidence in an auto accident case — a consideration recognized by insurance companies and their lawyers.
- Jury members' attitudes toward texting while driving and other dangerous distractions often reflect their own negative driving experiences, along with growing public awareness of this serious hazard.
Drivers have an obligation to focus on the road and avoid behaviors that endanger others. Seeking fair compensation for injuries and losses you suffered because of someone else's carelessness is the right thing to do — and failing to seek what you deserve is often simply a gift to an insurance company.
