As personal injury attorneys, we have seen firsthand the devastating
and permanent effects of distracted driving. It takes less than a second for a
serious and possibly fatal wreck to happen, and far too many of these
collisions happen because drivers are distracted.
While most people are aware of the dangers associated with
distracted driving, an alarming number of motorists still choose to use their
cellphones while behind the wheel. In fact, more than 400,000 people were
injured by distracted drivers in 2019 alone.
At MGA Law, we want to do our part to spread awareness of
the dangers associated with distracted driving. We are therefore excited to
announce our annual distracted driving awareness scholarship.
