April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month - and as the weather warms up and roads get busier - Maine is stepping up enforcement with a traffic safety initiative called “Put the Phone Away or Pay” targeting phone use while driving. Our attorneys see firsthand the consequences of distracted driving accidents and would like to remind all Mainers to: "Stay Safe and Arrive Alive!"

Maine's "Put the Phone Away or Pay" campaign will crack down on distracted driving this April. Learn how to protect your rights after a crash. Get a free consultation.
