Drunk Driving Accidents

One of the biggest mistakes a person can make is to operate a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. Every year, numerous accidents occur because someone was driving while intoxicated (DWI). If a person drives while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol, their coordination will be greatly diminished. A person that is impaired while operating a vehicle does not have the same ability or mental capacity as a person who is sober. For this reason, any person who drives while intoxicated is committing a serious criminal offense that can endanger their own life, along with the lives of others.

Drunk driving accidents are caused by driver negligence and recklessness, and are a leading cause of wrongful death and catastrophic injuries in Texas. The victims of drunk driving accidents often suffer debilitating injuries, such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, neck injuries, and burn injuries. Injuries of this nature are extremely painful and may even become worse over time. A majority of catastrophic injury victims are critically or permanently disabled, which can dramatically change their standard way of living.
