How many drinks does it take before a person poses a threat to others on the road? One. Even a single drink can impair judgement, slow reaction times, and increase risks for everyone else on the road. If you have been injured by a driver who had been drinking – even if they had only had one drink at the time of the accident – you may be entitled to significant compensation. Please call (425) 679-0742 to discuss your case with Seattle personal injury attorney Stephen Hornbuckle and learn more about your rights.
Drivers who have been drinking are responsible for over 30% of all fatal car accidents in the United States every year. Even when not fatal, the accidents caused by impaired drivers often leave the passengers and drivers of other vehicles seriously injured. While criminal proceedings may result in jail time and similar penalties for the people who cause these accidents, only a personal injury attorney who is dedicated to getting you justice can help ensure you are provided the compensation you are due.
