Man Charged with 3 DUI Counts in Same Night
It is well known that the legal blood alcohol level is .08. It is better not to drive after any number of drinks, but especially once the legal limit is met. As car accident attorneys in Arizona, we advise to always have a designated driver or plan to stay over if you have been drinking, to keep us all safer.
Monday night was a destructive night for one man in Washington. He has been charged with three counts of driving under the influence after he crashed both of his family’s cars and returned to tow them home with his own tow truck (KGMI 9/15/10). The two cars were wrecked on the same road and luckily no one else was hurt, although the driver suffered minor scratches. The situation could have been much worse had anyone else been on the road or in the cars at that time.
Before having a few drinks, it is important to have your transportation home already figured out and set in stone. Nominating a designated driver is a great option. If none of the people you are with are willing to be a sober driver, there are many other options available to get you and your friends home safely. Not only are taxis, buses, and light rails running at all hours, but there are also designated driver services for hire. You can find a shuttle, a tow truck, or some services that even drive your car home for you. A simple search before you go out to drink can be the difference between coming home at night and never coming home again.
