Impaired Driving Accidents
➡️ Even the best, most experienced drivers cannot outmaneuver the physiological impairments while intoxicated behind the wheel. Whatever the substance of choice, the effects of alcohol and drugs on driving are all extremely dangerous, reducing the ability to judge time and distance, slowing reflexes, increasing aggression and recklessness.
➡️ In Georgia, up to 30% of all fatal crashes involve a driver who is under the influence of alcohol.
➡️ In 2023, a total of 391 out of 1,797 traffic deaths on Atlanta highways were linked directly to DUI. That’s nearly 1 in 4 fatal accidents caused by impaired driving.
➡️ Strong legal footing: If injured by a DUI driver, you’re entitled not only to compensatory damages (medical bills, lost wages, pain & suffering) but also uncapped punitive damages due to the egregious nature of DUI negligence.

Risky Decisions
Getting into a car while impaired, putting it in gear, and entering a roadway is an intentional and negligent act that not only puts his or her own life at risk, but the lives of other drivers, riders, and pedestrians.
No Excuses
Impairment doesn’t turn off when it’s time to drive. With options like Uber, Lyft, and designated drivers, there’s no excuse for getting behind the wheel while impaired. It’s a choice that risks lives.
Never Forgotten
For victims of drunk or impaired drivers and their families, the pain is permanent. Their lives are forever altered by a tragedy that was entirely preventable—caused by the careless, reckless decision of a single impaired driver.
