A Virginia Tech study installed video cameras, gps devices, lane trackers and various speed detecting devices to figure out which processes actually distracted drivers per our personal injury lawyer. The study found that texting while driving and dialing while driving were the two things that took a driver’s attention from the road which would inevitably cause veering and response swerving, whereas talking did not have those effects. Our attorney in Greensboro has been advised that we’re seeing more and more of these situations. Our Greensboro divorce lawyer let us know that some of these situations are even leading to people filing for divorce.

As a side note, at least 12 states have banned the use of hand-held cellphones while driving and 41 ban text-messaging.
