Personal Injury: The Rise of Distracted Driving Accidents in Dallas

When you think of personal injury lawsuits, common scenarios like dog bites, workplace injuries, or construction accidents may come to mind. However, one of the most prevalent and concerning types of cases today involves distracted driving accidents. At NTX Law, we’re here to remind you that victims of distracted driving deserve justice, and we’re ready to help you fight for it.

The Distracted Driving Epidemic in Dallas

With the Dallas-Fort Worth area boasting some of the busiest roads in Texas, it’s no surprise that distracted driving has become a leading cause of accidents. From texting behind the wheel to using in-car technology, distractions contribute to thousands of crashes every year.

Here are some alarming statistics:

In 2022, Texas saw over 94,000 distracted driving crashes, many resulting in severe injuries or fatalities.

The Dallas metro area consistently ranks among the top cities in Texas for traffic-related accidents, including those caused by distractions.

Can You Sue for Distracted Driving? Absolutely.

If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by a distracted driver, you have the right to pursue compensation. Distracted driving is considered negligence under Texas law, and with the help of a personal injury lawyer, you can hold the at-fault party accountable.

Here’s how we help:

Proving Negligence: We gather evidence like police reports, traffic camera footage, and cellphone records to show the driver’s distraction.
Filing a Claim for Damages: Compensation may cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.
Negotiating or Litigating: Whether through settlement discussions or courtroom representation, we fight for your best interests every step of the way.

Common Examples of Distracted Driving Cases

A driver texting runs a red light and causes a T-bone collision.
A motorist adjusting their GPS veers into another lane, sideswiping your car.
A driver eating behind the wheel rear-ends you at a stoplight.

Preventative Measures & Awareness

While it’s important to hold negligent drivers accountable, awareness and prevention are key to reducing accidents. Some tips include:

Put your phone on “Do Not Disturb” mode while driving.
Use hands-free devices sparingly.
Focus solely on driving—leave multitasking for later.
