“One Text Or Call Could Wreck It All!” – Safety Slogan
Statistics show that 71% of young people say that they have texted/answered a phone-call while driving. Today, distracted driving is one of the major causes of motor-vehicle collisions world-wide.
A moment’s distraction can mean a life-time of disability or disfigurement for an unfortunate victim and a huge physical, financial and emotional burden for the family.

“Hang Up And Drive!”
This should be the mantra for all those who are behind the wheel in a car. Cellphone use is almost as dangerous as driving under the influence of alcohol and can cause a range of injuries, depending on the size of the vehicles, speed, whether the victim was a pedestrian, bicyclist, motor-bike rider or a passenger or driver in a motor-vehicle, road conditions, location etc.
Serious traumatic brain injury, spinal/head/neck injuries, fractures, cuts/wounds/lacerations, severe blood loss, internal organ damage, amputation, facial/dental damage, etc or even death can result from being injured in car accidents.
Our experienced Scarborough personal injury lawyers know from experience that victims and their families have to endure:
- Medical and rehabilitation expenditure

- Pain and suffering
Based on the nature and extent of injuries, there may be other categories under which compensation can be sought and our traumatic brain injury lawyers can provide further information on these.
