WERE YOU INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING A DISTRACTED DRIVER IN MARYLAND, DC., OR VIRGINIA?

Driving a motor vehicle demands someone’s complete attention. Unfortunately, as smartphones have become commonplace, many drivers believe they can text, go online or engage in other activities while behind the wheel. This behavior causes hundreds of thousands of injuries and thousands of deaths each year. Consider the following statistics from Distracted.org, a website created by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

  • In 2014, the most recent year with complete reporting, 3,179 people were killed in accidents involving distracted drivers. Approximately 431,000 people were injured.
  • During daylight hours, roughly 660,000 drivers are making phone calls or otherwise using a smartphone while driving at any given time.
  • In the five seconds it takes to send a text, a driver going 55 miles per hour has traveled the length of a football field without looking at the road.
