While DUI accidents made up just 7% of all accidents in Virginia in 2011, I believe that 5,465 people being injured on Virginia highways as a result of such negligence is far too many. State and local police have “cracked down” on this dangerous behavior, but if YOU or a loved one is injured or even killed by a negligent, drunken driver, a simple fine and the possibility of jail time won’t be enough to cover the cost of your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering.
