Distracted Driving Collisions in West Virginia
We see drivers in West Virginia who are not paying attention every day on the roads because they’re on their phones. In fact, many drivers admit to being distracted on the roads. It has become increasingly normal in the state for people to drive while drunk or distracted, and many more serious collisions are caused by things like cell phone use. You can easily travel the length of a football field in the time it takes to send a single text at highway speeds, and this is more than enough to cause a life-changing crash. A competent legal team can fight to get you the full and fair recovery you are owed after a serious collision. This is often the only way to maximize your recovery and get the full and fair compensation you are owed after being unfairly hurt by a reckless motorist.
