Drinking and driving is a dangerous and often deadly combination. Alcohol impairs a driver’s judgment, reaction time, and ability to operate a vehicle safely, which can increase the risk of serious accidents. Even a small amount of alcohol can have a significant impact on a person’s driving abilities, putting themselves and others on the road at risk.
According to the Washington Traffic Safety Commission, in 2023, 369 impaired drivers were involved in fatal crashes in Washington. Additionally, 60 of these drivers were involved in accidents that occurred in King County and 12 in Seattle.
If you’re involved in a drunk driving accident, the aftermath can feel hazy and disorienting. You may be in shock, experiencing pain, or feeling overwhelmed by the situation. In these situations, it is important to seek help and contact the authorities as soon as you can:
As a victim of a drunk driving accident, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses through an insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit. Economic damages cover quantifiable expenses such as medical bills, lost wages, and property damage. These make up a large portion of your award.
Non-economic damages, on the other hand, compensate for subjective losses like chronic pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. A Seattle drunk driving accident attorney can help you assess the full value of your claim and fight for the maximum compensation possible.
