Is texting worse than other mental distractions for drivers?
Some auto accidents have texting and driving as their cause. Victims of crashes caused by texting drivers may be able to get compensation for the medical expenses for their accident injuries and for other impacts the accident has had on them. Individuals hurt in such collisions may want a skilled traffic accident attorney’s help when trying to navigate legal issues regarding accident compensation.
The list of things drivers could get mentally distracted by when at the wheel is exceptionally long. Every type of distracted driving has dangers. Now, is texting while driving just another dangerous mental distraction a driver could end up engaging in or are there special things about it that can create added dangers on top of those mental driving distractions generally raise. A recent study indicates the latter may be the case.
In the study, researchers had the participants (there were just under 60 of them) do a driving simulation under various different circumstances.
