About Washington Drunk Driving Accidents

Alcohol, illegal drugs, prescription medications and even over-the-counter drugs can interfere with a driver’s vision, hearing and judgment. If a driver is intoxicated or driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level over the legal limit, this can be used to help establish liability in a claim for damages as a result of an accident. In addition to any criminal charges drunk drivers may face, they will also be liable to compensate individuals injured as a result of their conduct. This is true regardless of whether or not they are ultimately convicted for DUI in a court of law.

Unfortunately, not all drunk drivers have enough insurance and other assets to pay for the damages they cause. However, drunk drivers are not the only ones who can be held liable in drunk driving accident personal injury claims. Under Washington state law, the people who serve them alcohol can also be held liable under certain circumstances. If a bar, restaurant or nightclub serves alcohol to a person who is under 21 or obviously intoxicated, and that person causes a drunk driving accident, the establishment can be held accountable for the victims’ injuries and other losses.
