Los Angeles DUI Truck Accident Attorney

Truck Accidents and Drunk Drivers

DUI (driving under the influence) is a serious criminal offense. It is also an action that takes the lives of many thousands of people throughout the United States every year. In 2008 alone, 11,773 people lost their lives in traffic collisions involving a driver with a blood alcohol concentration of .08% or greater, which is the limit that places a driver in the category of "driving under the influence" or DUI. This number accounted for 32% of all traffic fatalities that year.
