Malone Legal Group stands ready to assist those affected by truck accidents caused by distracted driving, offering legal expertise to help victims seek justice and compensation.

Distracted Driving Leading to Truck Accidents in Lubbock, TX:

  1. Mobile Devices:

    • Truck drivers are increasingly using mobile phones for calls, texting, or browsing while driving, taking their eyes and focus off the road.
    • These distractions can result in delayed reactions to traffic changes and a higher risk of accidents.
  2. In-Cab Distractions:

    • Modern truck cabs are equipped with various electronic devices, including GPS, infotainment systems, and laptops.
    • Interacting with these devices can divert a driver's attention, making them more susceptible to accidents.
  3. Eating and Drinking:

    • Truck drivers often eat and drink while driving to meet tight schedules.
    • These activities can cause manual and visual distractions, impairing their ability to respond to road hazards.
  4. Fatigue and Daydreaming:
