What Is Distracted Driving? 

Distracted driving is anything that takes a driver’s focus off the road. Anything from sending an email or changing the radio station can cause an accident. Distracted driving is often compared to drunk driving because of the similar psychological pattern. A driver who gets away with driving while distracted will more than likely continue to do it until they cause an accident or suffer legal consequences.

There are three categories of driver distractions, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

  1. Manual Distractions – A task that requires the driver to remove one or both of their hands from the steering wheel, such as reaching for a cell phone or changing the radio station.
  2. Visual Distractions – A task that requires the driver to divert their attention away from the road to check their GPS or read a text.
  3. Cognitive Distractions – A task that requires the driver to focus on something else besides driving.

What Should I Do After A Car Accident?

If you were severely hurt in a distracted driving accident, you should seek medical attention immediately and hire an attorney. These are two crucial steps in building a solid distracted driving accident case. Your Memphis distracted driving accident attorney from Gold Law Firm will start working on your case right away. While you’re treating for your injuries, we will file a claim with the negligent driver’s insurance carrier and obtain a copy of their insurance policy. All drivers in the state of Tennessee are required to carry auto insurance with minimum bodily injury limits. Depending on the extent of your injuries, you might be entitled to the maximum limits listed on the policy.

We will launch a thorough investigation into the details of your accident. We will collect all the necessary evidence to prove the other driver should be held responsible for your injuries. Some of the evidence we’ll obtain includes the following:

  • Police reports
  • Witness statements
  • Photos of the accident scene
  • Video surveillance of the accident
  • Photos of your injuries
  • The at-fault driver’s insurance policies
  • Your medical records and medical bills

After we collect all the evidence we need,  we’ll send a demand letter to the insurance carrier with details proving you deserve a certain amount of compensation for the expenses you’ve incurred. If negotiations don’t lead to an acceptable settlement, we will file a lawsuit against the insurance company and possibly the driver, and take your case to court.

Many victims of distracted driving accidents will try to handle their insurance claims on their own. If you don’t have experience with auto accident claims, you might not know the information you need or the compensation you’re entitled to receiving. Insurance adjusters will look for any reason to not have to pay you. They will try to take advantage of your inexperience and might even provide you a lowball offer. We know the information and documentation insurance adjusters look for from individuals injured by someone in a distracted driving accident. We will make sure you are treated fairly throughout the entire claims process. 

Compensation for Your Injuries 

Most people think they can only receive compensation for their medical expenses. However, any losses you’ve suffered because of your injuries can be compensated. Distracted driving accidents can have a significant and lasting impact on your health, your ability to support yourself, and your ability to enjoy life as you once did. If a distracted driver causes a crash, you could seek compensation for:

  • Medical Expenses: Any past or future treatment that is medically necessary for your injuries, such as ER visits, ambulance services, diagnostic testing, home health nurse, surgery, physical therapy, and prescription drugs.
  • Emotional distress: Any significant distress, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other psychological damage that affects your daily life.
  • Pain and suffering: Covers both physical and emotional trauma you’ve experienced as a result of the crash.
  • Lost Wages: Salary, commissions, paid time off, promotions, or advancements you were unable to earn as a direct result of your accident.
  • Loss of Consortium: If an individual’s injuries affect their relationships, an immediate family member can seek compensation.
  • Death Benefits: If the victim of a distracted driving accident dies, loved ones can seek compensation for funeral and burial costs.
