The Impact of Common Car Accident Statistics on Dallas Drivers

An enlightening statistic posted on the website StopTextsStopWrecks.org gives better insight into the dangers of distracted driving. Studies show that engaging in any kind of visual-based distraction while driving, such as reaching for a cellular phone, dialing a phone number, or texting, can increase the risk of getting into a car accident by three times. This and the dozens of other alarming distracted driving car accident statistics can bring a sense of alarm to drivers everywhere. With these average stats impacting Texas residents in the same way as other states around the nation, Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler, L.L.P. is an advocate for distracted driving victims everywhere. We are committed to representing Dallas residents as a local and trustworthy personal injury attorney firm.

What Is Distracted Driving?

While we often focus on car accident statistics that display the dangers of driving while talking or texting on a cell phone, distracted driving comes in a number of forms and disguises. Any form of distracted driving is a form of irresponsible driving. Because distractions are dangerous to the lives of other innocent drivers, we choose to represent the hundreds of cases of victims whose lives have been impacted by other drivers’ negligence. Aside from talking or texting on a cell phone while operating a vehicle, these other common forms of distracted driving can greatly alter the course of a victim’s life if involved in a distracted driving collision:

• Eating or drinking while operating a vehicle
• Listening to loud music or adjusting the radio station
• Reading and driving
• Talking to others in the vehicle
• Using electronic devices like iPods or computers while driving

If you or a family member has been a victim to a distracted driving accident, you are all too familiar with the truth of these car accident statistics.

Client Testimonials

I would always suggest Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler

My insurance company refused to cover my injuries in an accident where they insured both parties. The other party was unquestionably liable and but did not have sufficient coverage, so damages should have been paid under my uninsured/underinsured coverage. Even though I had paid for uninsured/underinsured coverage for many years, my insurance company refused to pay. Andy Sommerman and his staff at Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler won the case in a jury trial even though there were three times as many attorneys and support on the opposing side. I would always suggest Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler if you need an attorney that is not intimidated by multi-billion dollar insurance companies.

After Suffering a Hit and Run

After suffering a hit and run, I turned to Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler for some much-needed legal assistance. The team at Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler worked fastidiously for three years to resolve my complex legal matter, and kept me informed throughout the whole process. In the end, Andy Sommerman was successful in having the truck owner’s insurance pay the bills.
