Most people are aware of the dangers associated with drinking and driving, and most drivers never get behind the wheel after having too much to drink. Consuming alcohol before operating a vehicle – no matter the amount – increases your chance of being involved in a car accident.
The infographic below shows the high costs associated with drunk driving. 10,000 people are killed and 173,000 people are injured every year due to alcohol-impaired drivers. And 30% of all vehicle fatalities are tied to drunk driving. Crashes caused by drunk driving cost nearly $130 billion each year.
As a Michigan license lawyer, I urge all drivers to refrain from drinking and driving. If you or someone you know has had their Michigan driver’s license revoked, contact Michigan drivers license appeal attorney Mark Langschied today.
