Despite the fact that thirty percent of all highway fatalities are caused by drunk drivers and Texas drunk drivers kill 1,000 and injure more than 17,000 every year, some Texas legislators want to reduce the penalty for driving under the influence. Under the proposed law, a first-time drunk driver could elect deferred adjudication for a DWI offense, ultimately expunging the record of any wrongdoing.
Dallas is one of the leading Texas cities for drunk driving. Watered-down punishments for drunk drivers will make the problem worse, not better. If you’ve been in a drunk driving accident, you need a legal counselor who understands the details of this important area of law – and the recent changes that the legislature may make!
