Distracted Driving Attorneys

If there’s one thing the history of the automobile has proven, it’s that drivers have to take their responsibilities seriously. Cars and trucks are too dangerous to be operated by people who don’t follow the rules or take basic safety precautions.

The most fundamental precaution one can take is to give the road your full attention while driving. At The Cochran Firm, our auto accident lawyers have seen clients who have had their lives devastated by a distracted driver.

Some things are never acceptable, and distracted driving is one of them. We can help if you’ve been injured in an accident caused by a distracted, negligent driver.

If you need an experienced auto accident lawyer to help you pursue justice and compensation, please call The Cochran Firm at 1-800-843-3476 today for a free consultation.

Forms of Distracted Driving

Modern telecommunications technology allows us to connect with people across the world at any time of day. This undoubtedly a good thing, but that much access does allow people to engage in activities at sub-optimal times.
“While driving” is assuredly one of the worst moments to be distracted. The Cochran Firm’s auto accident lawyers have seen drivers distracted by:

  • Phone calls
  • Texting
  • GPS monitors
  • Other passengers
  • Unusual sights along the side of the road
  • The radio
  • Reading
  • Applying make-up

Whatever the specific cause of the driver’s distraction, a lack of attention can prove devastating for everyone on the road.
