Describe Your Case:

Hang up and drive

Whether racing to an important meeting at the office or rushing to the grocery store for a last-minute replacement, it seems drivers are frequently in a hurry.

More often than not, we tend to multitask in the car to make up time. While it may be amusing to watch another driver apply makeup on the go or eat a quick meal in the car, these time-savers have a bad tendency to take the driver's attention away from the road.

Distracted drivers cause hundreds of accidents every day. Driving distractions caused one fourth of the nation's total car accidents in 2008. In Washington alone, an average of 165 driving fatalities can be attributed to distracted drivers each year.

One of the most common distracted driving habits involves the use of a cellular phone.

Many states have instituted laws against texting while driving. Washington goes a step further. In our state, it's illegal to talk on a cellular phone while driving - unless you are using a hands-free headset.

Bluetooth and hands-free devices can be found at all electronic stores or through your cellular provider. If you prefer to finish those last few phone calls on the long commute home, invest in one of these readily available safety features. There's no excuse for breaking the law.

At Monro Law Firm, we are dedicated to the safety of our clients. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a Washington car crash caused by a distracted driver, you may be eligible to receive compensation for your injuries.
