What are the consequences of texting while driving?

Texting while driving is now illegal in Florida. And so if someone is texting and driving while they cause an accident where you’re injured, then it could potentially lead to punitive damages in addition to your regular damages. Because what will often happen is that your attorney will be able to subpoena their cell phone records to prove that they were in fact texting while driving, and that can really open your case up to even more damages than you would normally be allowed to recover.
