Law enforcement is reminding drivers to report potential drunk drivers by calling 911. “Every DUI stop or arrest we make is a potential life saved,” S.C. Highway Patrol Troop 6 Commander Capt. Chris Williamson said. “One drink is one too many if you’re planning to drive.” The holidays are associated with consuming alcohol at parties, so law enforcement is stepping up their efforts to prevent drunk driving. Rural roads in particular see a high number of fatalities. DUI Checkpoints will be ready to catch drunk drivers. “When they get to drinking, they forget about (the designated checkpoints),” an officer said. According to news reports, Berkeley County has seen a rise in traffic fatalities during 2011.
As a Beaufort auto accident attorney, I always urge people to look after their friends and help them get home safely by hiring a cab or being a designated driver. If you or a loved one were injured in an auto accident, discuss your case with a personal injury attorney who can discuss your case and help defend your rights, along with answer any important questions you may have concerning your case. A personal injury lawyer can assist you through your case and help ensure the best possible results.
