A woman is sued for sending a text to her boyfriend while driving and causing an accident.

The couple’s attorney who is suing the young woman say that she distracted her boyfriend with her text who then crashed into a couple riding a motorcycle.

The couple both lost their left legs in the accident.

Their attorney claims that the texts sent at the time makes the woman “electronically present” in the car. She is therefore also accountable for the offender’s actions.

What do you think of this? Is the woman who sent the text partly responsible for the accident or is it solely the driver’s fault?

Let us know what you think.
