Distracted Driving Attorneys in Beaufort, SC - When You Need Legal Help, Call Us
At Twenge + Twombley, we understand that driver distraction is among the most common causes of car accidents in South Carolina. Distracted driving is also one of the most dangerous ways to drive. That's because drivers, passengers, pedestrians, bicyclists and other bystanders are immediately put at risk when a driver takes his or her eyes off the road. But despite the dangers of cell phones and other portable electronic gadgets, as of June 2014, South Carolina is one of only a few states that has yet to ban texting and driving.
The use of cellphones and other portable electronic gadgets by drivers has become a particularly dangerous distraction. In June 2014, South Carolina officially made texting while driving illegal. Our distracted driving injury attorneys in South Carolina know that people who ignore the ban and cause accidents will be held accountable.
