DUI Accidents in California
Drunk driving is a serious concern in California. A report conducted in 2017 found that drunk driving fatalities in the state had increased by 16 percent in 2016 from the previous year. 1,059 people were killed in DUI crashes in 2016.
Drunk driving is extremely negligent behavior. Drivers who choose to drive drunk can be held responsible for their actions when they cause a serious crash. An experienced California DUI crash attorney can help injured parties pursue deserved compensation.
