DUIs Involving Accidents Must Be Taken Seriously
Any DUI case with an accident is always more serious than just “drunk driving.” Courts nearly always increase penalties for any case with an accident, even if no one was injured. Because DUI drivers are expected to cause accidents, the legal system takes a particularly dim view of DUI drivers in accident cases.
