Gone are the days of our grandfathers’ advice to keep your hands in your lap and to quietly look out the window or read a book so the driver can concentrate. There are games being played on every device, music blasting from different areas of the car, telephone conversations contemporaneous with one another and GPS directions being shouted in a voice that always seems to have an odd accent. All of this commotion can make the driver’s job extremely difficult and take him/her away from their task at hand: Driving and doing so defensively. Knowing that almost every vehicle on the road includes these types of distractions is a bit overwhelming. Continue reading “Raleigh DWI Lawyer Gives Advice on Safe Driving”
