DUI statistics gathered from national databases and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) reports show that:
More than 10,000 Americans are killed by drunk drivers each year, especially around the holidays
Drunk driving arrests are higher than arrests made for violent crimes like murder, rape, and aggravated assault combined
Over 22% of drivers over age 21 admit to intoxicated driving, with 12% saying they do so regularly
The numbers show that DUI accidents and the circumstances that create them are far too common, causing thousands of preventable deaths each year. For those injured and the family members of those lost to such needless tragedy, a lawsuit can help you take back control.
