1
00:00:01.041 --> 00:00:01.833
We see a lot of

2
00:00:01.833 --> 00:00:02.583
distracted driver

3
00:00:02.583 --> 00:00:04.208
cases. We know that

4
00:00:04.208 --> 00:00:04.833
people are on their

5
00:00:04.833 --> 00:00:05.291
cell phones.

6
00:00:05.500 --> 00:00:06.041
We know that people

7
00:00:06.041 --> 00:00:06.833
are adjusting their

8
00:00:06.833 --> 00:00:07.750
stereo or looking at

9
00:00:07.750 --> 00:00:08.625
their navigation or

10
00:00:08.625 --> 00:00:09.000
trying to get

11
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:09.791
something to eat while

12
00:00:09.791 --> 00:00:10.500
they're in the car.

13
00:00:10.958 --> 00:00:12.083
When people aren't

14
00:00:12.083 --> 00:00:13.125
paying attention, the

15
00:00:13.125 --> 00:00:15.458
car is still moving.

16
00:00:15.833 --> 00:00:17.125
At 60 miles an hour,

17
00:00:17.125 --> 00:00:18.333
that car is moving 88

18
00:00:18.333 --> 00:00:19.083
feet per second

19
00:00:19.083 --> 00:00:19.833
down the road.

20
00:00:20.291 --> 00:00:21.125
And when you have a

21
00:00:21.125 --> 00:00:22.916
case, it seems that

22
00:00:22.916 --> 00:00:23.208
shouldn't

23
00:00:23.208 --> 00:00:23.708
have happened.

24
00:00:24.250 --> 00:00:25.625
It almost invariably

25
00:00:25.625 --> 00:00:26.708
turns out that the

26
00:00:26.708 --> 00:00:27.541
person was on their

27
00:00:27.541 --> 00:00:28.083
cell phone.

28
00:00:28.083 --> 00:00:29.541
We get those cell

29
00:00:29.541 --> 00:00:30.250
phone records. We

30
00:00:30.250 --> 00:00:30.958
obtain them by

31
00:00:30.958 --> 00:00:32.250
subpoena if necessary.

32
00:00:32.791 --> 00:00:33.666
And we go through them

33
00:00:33.666 --> 00:00:34.708
second by second to

34
00:00:34.708 --> 00:00:35.583
find out whether or

35
00:00:35.583 --> 00:00:37.166
not this is a distracted

36
00:00:37.166 --> 00:00:37.958
driver case.

37
00:00:38.458 --> 00:00:39.208
In our office, we

38
00:00:39.208 --> 00:00:40.083
firmly believe that

39
00:00:40.083 --> 00:00:41.041
distracted drivers

40
00:00:41.041 --> 00:00:42.166
cause many accidents,

41
00:00:42.166 --> 00:00:43.166
and we think that's a

42
00:00:43.166 --> 00:00:44.125
value driver when

43
00:00:44.125 --> 00:00:44.666
juries find

44
00:00:44.666 --> 00:00:45.333
out about it.

45
00:00:45.583 --> 00:00:46.291
So if you think you

46
00:00:46.291 --> 00:00:46.750
have one of those

47
00:00:46.750 --> 00:00:47.750
cases, give us a call.
