Many Florida automobile accidents can be prevented by following the speed limits and paying closer attention to road conditions and traffic. Distracted driving is a big problem on Florida roads and elsewhere. While it was great to have a mobile phone that can text, e mail, take pictures, and do thousands of other things, mobile phones are known to cause a driver to be distracted which, in turn, can lead to automobile accidents with serious personal injuries and, in some cases, the death of a driver of passenger.
