It is easy to believe that a few moments of distraction behind the wheel are entirely harmless. In reality, distracted driving often leads to severe and sometimes fatal accidents.

Our Murrieta personal injury lawyers are here to help victims seek compensation and hold negligent drivers accountable.

Cell Phone Accident Lawyer in Southern, Central, and Northern California

Answering a phone call or sending a text may seem like a task a person can do quickly enough that it will not affect their driving abilities. However, in the few moments a driver spends looking at their phone, a car can travel very far very quickly. In this span of time, accidents can happen. 

Over the last several years, we have seen a significant increase in cell phone use behind the wheel, often causing dangerous circumstances. In California, it is against the law to use handheld mobile devices while driving. Despite this, texting continues to play a prominent role in California car accidents each year.

Maineri Law Firm knows that the battle against distracted driving continues. We are committed to helping those affected by accidents caused by careless drivers. Our team works hard to hold drivers responsible when their behavior leads to dangerous crashes.

Distracted Drivers Often Cause Traffic Accidents

When sharing the roads with others, we would all like to believe that the other drivers are fully focused on getting to their destination safely. Unfortunately, this is only sometimes the case. Drivers often allow themselves to be distracted by various things while behind the wheel. Using a cell phone while driving is one of the biggest distractions on the roads today. 

Beyond cell phone use, other common examples of distractions for drivers include:

• Eating or drinking
• Talking with other passengers in the vehicle
• Applying makeup or shaving
• Reaching for items on the floor or in the backseat
• Daydreaming 

Car crashes can happen in an instant, and when a distracted driver is only partially paying attention to what is in front of them, there can be devastating consequences.
