Driver distractions claimed the lives of over 3,400 people in the United States in 2016. Any behavior that takes your eyes and mind off the task of driving is considered distracted driving. Some people believe that multitasking is just a part of driving, but that’s not true.
There are ways to prevent driver distraction, which can also prevent injuries and death due to auto wrecks. To gain you an understanding of all the ways Seattle drivers can be distracted on the road, see the following list:
Distracted driving is unacceptable, and if your injuries were caused by a driver who was engaging in this behavior, you can hold that person accountable by filing an auto crash claim. Holding that person accountable for the injuries he or she caused may prevent future injuries to other drivers.
When you’ve been injured in a wreck, you may decide to file an injury claim to recover your losses. You could be dealing with financial losses, such as medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and physical and mental health treatment costs.
You could also be dealing with non-economic losses like pain, suffering, and the way your life has changed due to your injuries
