Arlington Teen 4th Casualty in Alcohol-Induced Crash

The automobile accident that rocked the parents of Arlington twins – both of whom died in last week’s single car accident – has now claimed another life. Earlier this week 18-year-old Christian Martinez, a passenger in that horrific accident, died from injuries he sustained in the October 10 collision. Investigators also confirmed this week what several observers immediately suspected: alcohol played a part in causing the accident.

Parents of teens are frequently confronted with situations similar to the one playing out in Arlington. How should I defend my child’s if he or she is hurt in an automobile accident caused by one of their friends? Who is responsible, and what kind of compensation is appropriate? Statistics on Texas drivers reveal that teens disproportionately ride in groups and get in accidents when compared to the general population. The tragic result, of course, is that your child may be hurt through the recklessness of his friends.
