Why You Don’t Get Into Cars With Drunk Drivers
At my personal injury law firm in Fort Worth, we hear about the same kinds of car accidents caused by drunk drivers over and over. The worst thing about them is that they are completely preventable!
Early Sunday morning, Michael Garza, stepped out of the Honda he was riding after it crashed into a barrier on Interstate 20 in Grand Prairie. While checking the damage to his car, another vehicle slammed into him and his Honda ending his life.
What caused the car Garza was riding in to hit the barrier? The answer could lie in what the driver, Taja Deweese, was drinking that night. According to police, Deweese hit the barrier near an exit because she was intoxicated.
The driver of the Jeep that hit the Honda was taken to Methodist Dallas Medical Center with serious injuries. His son who was also a passenger only suffered minor injuries.
In science class, you always hear every action has a reaction. Look at this car wreck for example. One little thing can cause a chain reaction around you. We can’t control the actions of others, but we can control our own. Don’t drink and drive and especially don’t get into a car with someone you know has been drinking – even if you are too incapacitated to drive yourself. We represent far too many clients who have been injured by drunk drivers at my personal injury law firm in Fort Worth. There is always another alternative to drinking and driving – don’t risk it or your life could change forever.

The first reason is in the title, drunk driver. In my opinion you should never endanger your life with unnecessary risks like putting your life in the hands of someone that is irresponsible enough to drive drunk.
