Gainesville, Ocala, Lake City & Inverness, Florida Accident Attorney and Alachua County DUI Lawyer Blogs

One video says it all... everyone should watch this, no matter our age! Pay attention on the road!

As a car and truck accident lawyer with my main office in Gainesville, I know first hand the devestating results of crashes, no matter who causes them, and that National Teen Driver Safety Week gives us a valuable time to stop and educate ourselves and our children about the increased dangers teen drivers bring to the road. I applaud all the groups that have gotten together to get this important information out.  In a recent blog post, Be a Responsible Parent; Educate Your Teens About Traffic Safety, I discussed the fact that teens when in a car or truck accident are twice as likely to kill as be killed. 

Here is a video that says it all and depicts some of the dangers that teens and their multiple distractions bring to the road.  This video is also a good reminder to us all of the importance of paying attention to the road and avoiding distractions, I think everyone should watch this video no matter our age.
