You're Texting With Someone You Know is Driving?

Direct Link to Post

Hello Beeler Bloggers,
I am working on a few really provocative blog posts.  This one is provocative but is a repost of something that is really timely.

Have you ever been in a text conversation  with another person whom you know to be  driving?

You could end up in court.  Click this link to 11Alive news for details http://www.11alive.com/rss/rss_story.aspx?storyid=140992

If you read the article closely you will see the very tough dilemma that this texting partner is in.  Have you considered this: could the victim's estate sue him  for punitive negligence because he had knowledge that his partner was texting and driving but continued the texting conversation anyway?

Hmm, what difficult positions we find our selves in.  If he were a client of Beeler Insurance Agency we would have recommend a personal liability umbrella policy that could provide insurance coverage for this type of suit up to $5 million.  Do you have an insurance agent that is watching out for you or is 15 minutes helping you save save 15% with the GECKO.
That 15 minutes could cost this client dearly.  Let's hope not.
Until next time,
Chris Beeler
