New Study Reports Inexperience and Distraction Contribute to Majority of Car Accidents Involving Teenage Drivers

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

According to U.S. News & World Report, a recent study of over 800 car accidents involving teenage drivers indicated that inexperience and distraction account for the majority of teen driving accidents.  The study found that 76 percent of those crashes were due to a “critical teen error,” such as “lack of ‘scanning’ skill to assess the environment sufficiently while behind the wheel; driving too fast for road conditions (not necessarily going over the speed limit, however); or being distracted by something inside or outside of the vehicle.” The study calls for increased training for teenage drivers.

According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, auto accidents are the leading cause of death of 13-19 year olds.  Teenage drivers can pose risks to themselves, their passengers, and other drivers and passengers.  If you have lost a loved one in a motor vehicle accident in Tennessee, call the Tennessee auto accident attorneys at Nahon, Saharovich, and Trotz (“NST Law”) at 901-683-7000 or 1-800-LAW-4004.  Nahon, Saharovich, and Trotz, the largest plaintiff’s personal injury law firm in Tennessee, has 28 lawyers dedicated to protecting victims injured in auto accidents.

Tennessee Aims to Reduce Distracted Driving According to Tennessee Car Accident Lawyers at Nahon, Saharovich, and Trotz

Monday, May 9th, 2011

According to the Tennessee Department of Transportation (“TDOT”), the Tennessee Governor’s Highway Safety Office recently teamed up with the national Governor’s Highway Safety Office and Oprah Winfrey to increase awareness of the dangers of distracted driving.  The campaign designated a special “No Phone Zone Day” to encourage drivers to put their cell phones away while driving.  According to TDOT, 15 people die each day in distracted driving car accidents in the United States.  In recognition of this statistic, Tennessee, along with many other states, passed a law that bans texting while driving.  One Tennessee Governor’s Highway Safety Office official compared texting while driving to driving with a blindfold.

A distracted driver can be an unsafe driver.  This is one reason why a majority of states have enacted some form of legislation that prohibits texting and cell phone use while driving.  The Tennessee auto accident attorneys at Nahon, Saharovich, and Trotz (“NST Law”) have knowledge of the intricacies of Tennessee driving laws and regulations designed to prevent distracted driving.  To speak to a Tennessee car accident attorney at NST Law, call 901-683-7000 or 1-800-LAW-4004.

The deceased tried to swerve out of the way, but the front of the GMC struck the deceased’s car broadside.  The GMC driver and deceased were rushed to Hardin Medical Center where the deceased passed away just hours later.  Charges have yet to be filed but the Tennessee Highway Patrol is still conducting an investigation.
