There is a strong history of holiday related accidents across Southern California and you should be extra cautious about the likelihood of becoming involved in a car accident resulting in injuries on July 4th. Independence Day is a festive day across the country with people gathering for parties, picnics, and neighborhood gatherings. After a day of celebration, food and drink many seek out local fireworks displays. This is actually historically a dangerous holiday and we urge all to exercise caution as they travel today.
Drunk drivers and distracted drivers account for the majority of car accidents and motorcycle crashes which result in injury here in Southern California. RecIent informational campaigns have focused upon the risks of driving while “buzzed” (lightly intoxicated). Those who drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs are responsible for the majority of wrongful deaths in California each year. DUI related accidents often result in serious injuries, including but not limited to:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries and Head Injury
- Paralysis or a Permanent Loss of Range of Motion
- Broken Ribs and Damage to Internal Organs
- Severe Fractures
