Drunk Driving Accidents<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
The statistics for drunk driving accidents are\nalarming, regardless of which state the data is coming from. Drunk driving\naccidents are among the most common types of motor vehicle accidents in the\ncountry. In fact, read our blog, \u201cEye-Opening\nDrunk Driving Facts and Statistics<\/a>\u201d to learn just how startling these numbers\nare. Not only are drivers and passengers common victims, pedestrians, cyclists,\nskaters, and more are also injured by inebriated drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With such high statistical numbers, car accident\ninjury claims are also quite common. They fall under tort law, which provides\nfinancial relief for those wrongly injured by another person as a result of\ncarelessness, negligence, gross negligence, or recklessness. If you are injured\nin an accident because of someone else\u2019s actions or inactions, you can make a\nclaim against their insurance company to recover compensation for damages and\nlosses. Such losses generally include hospital bills, medical expenses, lost\nwages from time off work, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of the time, a claim is made by the victim\n(claimant) against the drunk driver\u2019s insurance company. If a person is killed\nby a drunk driver, their family or next of kin can make a wrongful death claim\nagainst the drunk driver\u2019s insurance company. If the drunk driver\u2019s\ninsurance company will not settle the claim fairly, a lawsuit can be filed\nagainst the drunk driver and the drunk driver\u2019s insurance company would have to\npay the verdict received against the drunk driver, up to that driver\u2019s\nautomobile policy limits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to make a claim against a drunk driver that\nhas injured you in an accident, whether as a driver yourself, a passenger, or a\npedestrian, your very first step is the most vital one; seek proper and\nthorough medical treatment.
