Distracted driving has become one of the most dangerous behaviors on Bucks County roads. From texting and scrolling on social media to adjusting navigation systems, distracted drivers put everyone at risk. When their carelessness causes injury or death, victims deserve accountability.

At Wilk Law Firm, our Bucks County distracted driving accident attorneys represent individuals and families whose lives have been turned upside down by negligent drivers. We handle every part of your claim — from investigating the crash to negotiating with insurers — so you can focus on healing.

The Reality of Distracted Driving in Bucks County

Each year, thousands of crashes in Pennsylvania are linked to distracted drivers. In Bucks County, where busy roads like Route 1, I-95, and Route 611 see heavy traffic, even a few seconds of inattention can lead to tragedy.

Common forms of distraction include:

  • Texting or talking on the phone while driving
  • Adjusting GPS or in-car controls
  • Eating, drinking, or personal grooming
  • Talking to passengers or handling children or pets
  • Reaching for items inside the vehicle

Even with hands-free technology, a distracted driver’s focus shifts — and that split second can cause catastrophic consequences.

Pennsylvania Laws on Distracted Driving

Pennsylvania law prohibits drivers from sending or reading text messages while operating a motor vehicle. However, enforcement can be challenging, and proving distraction requires experience and evidence.

At Wilk Law Firm, we work to uncover:

  • Cell phone and text message records
  • Witness statements
  • Police reports and crash data
  • Traffic camera and dashcam footage
  • Vehicle black box data

By combining this evidence, we can prove distraction and hold negligent drivers accountable.

Common Injuries in Distracted Driving Crashes

Victims of distracted driving accidents often suffer serious, sometimes permanent injuries, including:

  • Whiplash and neck strain
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Internal injuries and bleeding
  • Severe lacerations and contusions

These injuries can lead to long-term pain, costly medical treatment, and loss of income. Our firm ensures that your damages reflect the full extent of your suffering.

  • Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
