Distracted driving can take various forms, including texting and driving, eating, grooming, or looking around at the scenery. When distracted drivers violate traffic laws and cause accidents, victims can typically recover compensation for the losses they suffer. Knowing when another driver was engaging in distracted driving in the moments before they hit you can be difficult, as you were busy focusing on driving responsibly in your own vehicle. Your personal injury attorney can collect the evidence and information you need to determine what the other drivers in your accident were doing before the collision to know whether you are entitled to damages.
