An LCD device driven with storage capacitors prevents defective image display caused by capacitive coupling between data lines and storage capacitor lines. The LCD device includes pixel electrodes arranged at intersections between drain lines and gate lines, switching elements, storage capacitor lines corresponding to the gate lines, storage capacitors having first electrodes connected to the pixel electrodes and second electrodes connected to the storage capacitor lines, a switching circuit for selectively applying a potential to the storage capacitor lines, and a drain driver. The drain driver selects some of the data lines so that an equal number of image data signals having a positive polarity and image data signals having a negative polarity are provided to the selected data lines and simultaneously provides the selected data lines with the image data signals having a positive polarity and the image data signals having a negative polarity.
