Can taking precribed medicine lead to an automobile accident?

Posted on January 13th, 2010 No Comments

People are prescribed medicine for a variety of medical conditions. While many of these medications help treat the illness, they can also have a number of side effects that make driving dangerous.

For instance, some medications make people drowsy. The resulting tiredness behind the wheel can impair a person's ability to drive or cause them to fall asleep. 

In most cases, the doctor who prescribes the medication will inform the patient of any side effects. However, the driver could be held responsible for any auto accidents caused by the drug's side effects.

The risks of using GPS navigation systems

Posted on January 12th, 2010 No Comments

Many drivers today equip their vehicles with GPS navigation systems. These systems allow drivers to look up and use directions on the go.

While these navigation systems are useful for navigation purposes, they can also be harmful to drivers because they are a source of distraction. When drivers are distracted by the inputs and directions of their navigation systems, they are more likely to be involved in traffic accidents. 

If you have been injured in a traffic accident caused by a distracted driver, contact the Iowa traffic accident attorneys of LaMarca & Landry, P.C., at 877-327-2600.
