Drunk Driving Accident Victim Lawyers

Personal Injury Lawyers Serving Tucson, Phoenix, Flagstaff and all Arizona cities and communities

Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is an extremely dangerous act. Drunk drivers lose full control over their bodies’ coordination and ability to fully and promptly react to situations. Their perception is also inhibited, which affects their ability to judge speed and proximity. All of these factors, especially when considered together, indicate that inebriated motor vehicle operators pose a risk to themselves and anyone else on or near the road. Statistics have proven this fact as well; on an annual basis, tens of thousands of individuals are killed by drunk drivers.

If you have sustained an injury from a drunk driving wreck, then you deserve to pursue damages for your pain. The Tucson, Phoenix, and Flagstaff drunk driving accident victim lawyers of Miller, Pitt, Feldman & McAnally, P.L.C. can help you learn more about your legal rights in this situation. Please call our offices today to schedule a consultation.

Alcohol’s Effects on the Body

Ingesting alcohol can have serious effects on the body’s ability to properly function. The following are all physical systems and abilities that are impaired when an individual has consumed alcohol:

  • Motor skills
  • Vision
  • Perception
  • Tracking
  • Information processing
  • Attention

Any sort of debilitative effects that these processes undergo severely alter one’s ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. If you have been a victim of a drunk driver, please contact the Tucson and Phoenix personal injury lawyers of Miller, Pitt, Feldman & McAnally, P.C. today.

Penalties for Drunk Driving

The penalties for driving under the influence vary from state-to-state, but in general, drivers convicted of DUI/DWI will face the following punishments:

  • License suspension
  • Incarceration
  • Fines
  • Vehicle confiscation

Drivers who cause serious injury or death to another individual by operating their vehicles under the influence face much harsher convictions and punishments. Those who are charged with DUI but whose actions have not affected others will likely face the above penalties.
