Taking On Distracted Drivers
Last updated on April 25, 2024
By now, every motorist should be aware of the dangers of texting and other cellphone use behind the wheel. These are certainly not the only distractions that play a part in serious car accidents, but many recent, authoritative studies show that texting while driving can be as dangerous as driving drunk. Texting while driving is illegal in Tennessee — but current penalties do not effectively prevent people from putting their own safety and the safety of others in jeopardy.
Other distracted driving behaviors, from eating and reading to attending to young kids, also contribute to many wrecks. If you believe that another driver’s failure to focus on driving caused your accident, please promptly get in touch with me, attorney George R. Garrison in Sevierville.
Skilled And Determined To Get Results
I work diligently to help victims and their families recover all the compensation they deserve after motor vehicle accidents in the Sevierville, Cocke and Jefferson areas and throughout East Tennessee. Since 1990, I have built a reputation as a strong, skilled negotiator and capable trial lawyer. By taking your case, I will guide you in investigatory and legal steps that include:
- Follow-up on your observations prior to a crash, including visible activity in the other driver’s vehicle, erratic speeds or “lane drifting”
- Recognition of other evidence indicating that distracted driving was likely a factor in the crash, such as when a driver failed to press brake before impact
- Diligence in establishing the full financial and personal impact of a distracted driver accident — or any other serious or fatal car accident — on your life and your families’ well-being
- Rigor in determining all potential sources of recovery for you, including your own insurance coverage if the offending driver was uninsured or underinsured
I am determined to help you and your family until the conclusion of your case.
