Alcohol and Car Accidents

Although alcohol is not the leading cause of car accidents, it is one of the leading causes of car fatalities. There are few things more irresponsible than getting behind the wheel of a car when you know that you are not fit to drive. You are not only putting your life at risk, you are also putting completely innocent people at risk.

Drunk driving should never be tolerated. If you suspect that a drunk driver was the cause of a car accident which resulted in severe injury of yourself or a loved one, contact the Charlotte personal injury attorneys of the Law Offices of William K. Goldfarb at 866-298-0768.

Encountering a Drunk Driver

It is of utmost importance that drunk drivers are taken off the road as soon as possible if they get behind the wheel. If you suspect that another driver on the road may be under the influence of alcohol, immediately call the authorities and report the person. Be sure to note the following information if you can:

• The license plate of the suspicious driver
• The color and make of the car
• What the driver was doing to make you suspicious

After you have this information, get away from the suspicious vehicle! Do not continue to drive near someone you suspect may be drunk, as you may then become the victim of a serious accident.
