Distracted Driving Accidents

Distracted driving is driving while engaging in any activity that could potentially take the driver’s full attention off of the road and interfere with the safe operation of a motor vehicle. Distracted driving can be caused by many factors which include: talking to passengers in the car, loading music or changing channels on the radio, using in-vehicle information systems, applying makeup, and eating or drinking while driving. One of the leading causes of driver distraction, however, is cellphone and smartphone use while driving.

According to the National Safety Council, a staggering 1.6 million car accidents each year are attributed to cell phone use, including talking and texting while driving. In 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that distracted driving resulted in injuries to more than 380,000 people and led to more than 3,000 fatalities. The American Automobile Association, AAA, estimates that distraction contributes to 16% of all deadly crashes. These statistics are alarming given an estimated 9 out of 10 American adults own a mobile phone.

Massachusetts Safe Driving Law

In Massachusetts, texting while driving is strictly prohibited for drivers of all ages. The Safe Driving Law became effective in Massachusetts on September 30, 2010. Drivers are now not permitted to use the internet and send, type or read any electronic messages while operating a motor vehicle in Massachusetts. Texting while driving is unlawful in Massachusetts. Hands free technology should be utilized while driving. The law is more restrictive for certain types of drivers. M.G.L. ch. 90 § 8M bans all cell phone use by junior operators under the age of 19 while driving.
