Drunk Driving Accident

Understanding the Consequences of Drinking & Driving

Every one of us has heard the stories of drunk driving car accidents. There is not one licensed driver in the state who is unaware of the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol, yet every year, people are seriously injured and killed by intoxicated drivers. If you or someone you know is one such victim, hire an Alaska personal injury lawyer from Johnson & Associates, PC right away to file a successful claim. The injuries and other damages caused by a drunk driving accident can be severe and could cause extreme financial hardship without proper compensation.

Alcohol inhibits a driver’s awareness and their reflexes, meaning that they are highly likely to speed, drift between lanes or into oncoming traffic, run stop signs and red lights, or veer of the side of the road. Innocent victims can be rear-ended, hit side-on, or hit head-on by a drunk driver and suffer catastrophic injuries such as broken bones, brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries. Many people are tragically killed in such accidents, as well. Surviving family members of fatal accident victims have the right to obtain compensation for their loss by filing a wrongful death claim.
