FATAL DWI CRASH INVESTIGATION

Alcohol-impaired driving continues to be one of the leading causes of fatal and serious-injury crashes in California, according to the state’s Office of Traffic Safety.

In 2023, 1,355 people were killed in alcohol-involved crashes, representing a 55 percent increase from 2014.

Drivers under the influence can experience impaired judgment, reduced vision, diminished coordination and slower reaction times. Candice Bond, an experienced DUI accident attorney, provided her thoughts on incidents such as this.

“Separate from criminal charges, a victim’s family may be entitled to compensation through a civil lawsuit against the responsible party,” said Candice Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal and a national analyst with Accident Injury News. “In addition to the diligent work of law enforcement, an attorney can re-interview important witnesses, analyze any surveillance video from the scene of the crash, and obtain phone and text records of the liable party. Serving as an advocate, an attorney can compassionately guide a family during this difficult time, protecting their legal rights while ensuring that a drunk driver is held accountable for their reckless actions.”
