Someone may reach for a dropped phone, a spilled drink, a bag, food, sunglasses, or something rolling around the floorboard. A passenger may demand attention at the wrong moment. A driver may react to a bee, an insect, a noise, or an object inside the car.<\/p>\r\n            <p>Afterward, the driver may say:<\/p>\r\n            <div style=\"display:flex;gap:.6rem;align-items:flex-start;color:var(--text);font-size:1rem;line-height:1.6;font-style:italic;background:var(--panel);border:1px solid var(--rule-2);border-radius:6px;padding:.8rem 1rem;margin:1rem 0;max-width:420px\"><span style=\"flex:none;width:3px;align-self:stretch;background:var(--gold);border-radius:2px\"><\/span><span>&quot;I only looked away for a second.&quot;<\/span><\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"pull\">But a second at highway speed can change a family&#39;s life.<\/div>\r\n            <p>When I evaluate a case, I do not simply accept the explanation.

If a child is unrestrained, a pet is loose, a phone is within reach, or items are unsecured in the car, those facts may explain the distraction.
