Connecticut Auto Accident Lawyers

Drunk driving accounts for a large portion of these fatalities. During 2005, 16,885 people in the U.S. died in alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes, representing 39% of all traffic-related deaths (NHTSA 2006). In 2005, nearly 1.4 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics (Department of Justice 2005). That’s less than one percent of the 159 million self-reported episodes of alcohol–impaired driving among U.S. adults each year (Quinlan et al).
In 2005, out of all traffic fatalities, 37% involved a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 or higher.

While the Connecticut criminal justice system is equipped to deal with the criminal aspects of a drunk driving accident, it usually fails to address the heavy financial burden that a death or serious injury has on innocent victims and families.
