According to a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) study, receiving or sending a text removes a motorist’s eyes from the road for about 4.6 seconds, on average. This means that a driver will travel the distance of a football field at 55 mph without looking at the road – and even further at higher speeds. This is enough time and distance to cause a serious traffic collision. According to DOT, texting while driving means that motorists have 23 times the accident risk when compared with non-distracted drivers.

Do You Have Excellent Car Insurance and Health Insurance?Even if you do, keep in mind that after a car crash, you may not get the compensation you think you deserve because of your coverage. In many cases, insurance companies undervalue claims. After all, these large companies are protected by lawyers and can make the biggest profits if they take in premiums while paying out as little as possible.
Just because you have insurance, it does not mean that all of your lost wages, damaged property, car repairs, surgery, medical bills, emergency medical treatments, and other costs will be covered. In fact, the more catastrophic your injuries are, the less likely it is that your car insurance and health insurance will cover the full cost. Keep in mind that some serious injuries, such as head injuries and spinal cord injuries are very expensive in Miramar and may leave you reliant on medical care and at-home assistance for the rest of your life. These injuries can also leave you unable to return to your job. You may lose hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars due to these types of injuries. Even a fracture can cost tens of thousands of dollars in lost income, rehabilitation, medical devices, doctors’ appointments, and other expenses. Don't sell yourself and your future short. Consult with a personal injury attorney in Miramar or your community to ensure that you get the maximum compensation available to you by law.
Don't you deserve the maximum compensation that you are may be entitled to? If your injuries have been caused through no fault of your own, Florida law allows you to seek compensation for property damage, pain and suffering, lost income, medical expenses, and more. If you have suffered injury, if your car has been damaged, or if you've had to take time away from your work due to injuries caused by a car accident, you may be able to pursue the at-fault driver and his or her insurance company in order to get fair compensation. This will not only help you pay for bills, but it can also help you avoid the financial distress that is all too common for many people who have suffered a serious injury.
