Distracted driving is one of the most dangerous things someone can do when behind the wheel. Whether they are reading an email, writing a text, singing, talking to a passenger, smoking, shaving, or eating; all of these activities can lead to serious accidents. Ponca City is no exception when it comes to distracted driving accidents.
That is why you need an experienced Ponca City distracted driving accident attorney from BDIW Law on your side when injured in such a crash.
Multitasking in the Technological Age
With the endless supply of technological devices at our fingertips daily, many drivers are tempted to multitask by using cell phones, texting devices, and other handheld devices while driving. This type of multitasking is extremely dangerous. Studies consistently show that people are not nearly as good at multitasking as they think.
At any rate, drivers need to be responsible for their driving. If a distracted driver has hurt you or someone you love, work with an experienced attorney to obtain the compensation you deserve for your injuries and losses.

SPEAK TO AN ATTORNEY TODAYCommon Distractions that Cause Accidents
Cell phones come to mind when most drivers think of a distraction that takes their attention off the road. But there are more distractions outside of cell phones that can cause an accident. Some of these common distractions include:
- Playing around with other passengers
- Eating or drinking
- Adjusting the air conditioning or navigation
- Smoking
- Applying makeup
- Moving other objects in the car
These actions can lead to serious accidents when they’re performed behind the wheel. If you or a loved one has been injured in a distracted driving accident, call an experienced distracted driving accident attorney in Ponca City at BDIW Law to schedule a free consultation today.
Zoning Out
Another common distraction is daydreaming. This often happens when drivers have been on the road for a long period.
Drivers are more likely to zone out in the middle of traffic. They may also be at risk of zoning out if they use ridesharing services like Uber or Lyft. Drivers on “autopilot” can hurt themselves and other drivers. It only takes one second for someone to lose control of their car.
