A texting driver is a dangerous driver, period. If you’re texting and driving and caused a crash, you are responsible for all the damages that you caused. Also in Wisconsin, it’s my opinion that if you have a history of texting and driving. It’s to the level of drunk driving where it’s distracted.
I believe there’s studies that say that if you are texting and driving, it’s as if you’ve had multiple drinks. It’s the same kind of reaction time, so I’d argue that you’re even more responsible and that in some cases, punitive damages against you are appropriate. If you have questions, if you’re injured because somebody else was texting and driving, let us know.
