Given the prevalence of cell phones, it is not unexpected that distractions play a significant role in fatal road accidents. The National Safety Council also observes that an increase in traffic fatalities across the country is likely caused by distracted driving. Nearly 74 percent of fatal accidents this year are believed to be the result of driver error, including texting or drowsy driving.
We get so used to driving that we frequently fail to recognize how dangerous and potentially dangerous it can be. These days, there are many potential distractions for drivers, and those distractions are leading to unsafe driving habits. The number of collisions involving texting and driving, distracted driving, and drinking while driving has increased in the state of South Carolina. Every day, terrible car accidents that involve drivers and passengers around the state result in significant injuries or fatalities.
