Texting While Driving

Yesterday while driving on I-95 I looked to my left and the young man in the car next to me was texting.  He was in the high speed lane driving about 60 mph.  Even though texting is now illegal in RI people are still texting.  If you drive a fair bit and look at the drivers around you, you will start to notice a significant number of people (a guesse is 5-10%) of drivers texting or talking on the phone.  If you are in an accident with someone who was texting, most likely they are at fault.  You can recover damages if this is the case.  I have a page on my website about auto accident in Rhode Island.
