West Virginia has a high percentage of collisions involving distracted drivers, and recent studies indicate that driving when distracted can pose the same risk to drivers as driving while intoxicated. Most distracted driving accident victims are under twenty years old, and human error plays a role in the majority of these collisions. Every year, distracted driving results in over 3,000 fatalities and hundreds of thousands of catastrophic injuries.
