Fines for texting while driving in Maine

It goes without saying that drivers should focus on the road, not on their cell phone screens. Maine law prohibits texting while driving, with the minimum fine for texting while driving being $100.

Those fines exist for good reason. Every year, hundreds of motorcyclists are killed by distracted drivers, with cell phones as the most common cause of distraction. Thousands more sustain serious motorcycle accident injuries that may result in skyrocketing medical bills, a loss of income and pain and suffering. Traumatic injuries related to motorcycle wrecks such as amputation, broken bones or injuries requiring surgery demand the skills of an experienced motorcycle accident attorney in Maine.
