Kim Kardashian Tweets about the Dangers of Texting and Driving | Seattle Car Accident Lawyer

As a Seattle car accident attorney and Bellevue personal injury lawyer, I am constantly confronted with the dangerous reality of texting and driving. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, twenty-five percent of all auto accidents are caused by distractions. This includes texting and talking on cell phones. Many will agree that no driver should be texting while driving.

Recently, Kim Kardashian has been speaking out about the dangers of texting while driving. She recently posted a picture on Twitter of a Florida cop texting in traffic.

According to Star Pulse entertainment news, Kim wrote “A cop texting & driving in the car next to us! This disturbs me! What do u guys think?”

Many states have already banned the use of handheld cellular devices while driving and Florida may be next. State lawmakers are currently working on a bill that will make it illegal to text and drive in Florida. Senator Carey Baker is also advocating a ban targeting minors specifically.

Recent research is showing that drivers under the age of 19 are the most likely to be distracted by the use of a cellular device while driving. And, according to a University of Massachusetts study, minors tend to take and keep their eyes off the road longer than any other drivers.

Kim Kardashian says she recently had a very bad texting and driving experience herself, but she did not divulge any details on the topic. In any case, I’m sure we’ve all heard the stories of drivers who text. It is a very dangerous driving distraction that can cause some of the worst auto accidents.
