Changing technology continues to bring added convenience to our lives. With the click of a button or the swipe of our finger, we can connect with anyone, at any time. While technology makes our lives easier, we put ourselves and others at risk when we use it at the wrong times. Drivers who text or talk on their cell phones when behind the wheel can create hazardous conditions for everyone on the road.
Most of us know that darting your eyes from the road while you quickly read a text or search for a phone number can cause an accident. But with Bluetooth and newer cars offering hands-free options where we don’t have to take our eyes off the road or our hands off the wheel – so wouldn’t that be safer? According to research compiled by the National Safety Council, there was no reported safety benefit to using a hands-free option. While it reduces the chance of shifting your eyes or moving your hands, hands-free still can detract from our concentration or focus.
Distracted drivers can cause serious car accidents. Lack of concentration can impair their ability to stop or maneuver their car to avoid an accident. If the crash happens at a high speed, this can result in life-threatening, even fatal, injuries. Crash victims, or their families, should seek the help of a Miami car accident lawyer if they were injured.
