Representing car accident victims in Huntsville, Alabama

Most Alabama drivers do their best to stay safe on the road. They follow traffic laws, drive at an appropriate speed and refrain from getting behind the wheel after they’ve been drinking. Unfortunately, this cannot be said for all Alabama drivers. Some drivers seem intent on violating as many laws of driving and decency as they can, and this results in accidents.

With the rise in popularity of smartphones, there has been a massive surge in motor vehicle fatalities in Alabama and the rest of the nation. This is because many drivers are operating their vehicles while using their smartphones, creating scenarios where they are less likely to be paying attention to the road. When drivers stop paying attention, they’re much more likely to cause a fatal or injurious accident.

Also, even though Alabama has strict laws designed to prevent drunk driving, there are numerous citizens who choose to operate their vehicles while they’re drunk. In fact, believe it or not, a large percentage of fatal car accidents in our state involve drivers who were inebriated.
