Drunk Driving Accidents
Even though drunk driving is against the law, unfortunately there are still many drunk drivers on the road. Drunk drivers lack the reflexes and judgment needed to avoid an automobile collision. In 2008 approximately 32 people a day were killed in alcohol related car crashes. As a result organizations have launched national campaigns. Check out www.stopimpaireddriving.org and Mothers Against Drunk Driving for excellent resources and more information on drunk driving.
The highest risk population for impaired drivers is those between the ages of 21 and 34. For more information see www.nhtsa.gov. Too Intoxicated to Drive? The average Operating While Intoxicated Offense in the State of Indiana can cost several thousand dollars. Visit www.lastchancewrecker.com they'll get you AND your car home safely.

Another advantage of retaining an experienced car accident lawyer to assist you in a case involving a drunk driver, is our ability to look for additional sources of compensation for you. In many cases where there are serious injuries, such as paralysis or brain damage, the amount of insurance is insufficient to cover your current and future expenses, so we look for other sources of compensation, including dram shop liability (i.e. there may be liability from the establishment that sold the drunk driver his or her drinks).
