Injury-Causing Collisions in Idaho

Distracted driving significantly contributes to the accident rate in Idaho. Due to the ever-constant presence of mobile phones and other electronic devices, drivers continue to use them to perform various tasks, even while behind the wheel, including social media browsing, GPS navigation, and text messaging. This has exacerbated the occurrence of serious multi-vehicle collisions across the nation, including in our state. And, although the injured victims of car accidents caused by negligent drivers in Idaho are entitled to compensatory damages for all losses and expenses incurred, this process becomes particularly complicated in accidents involving several different vehicles and drivers.
