Common Injuries Suffered by Drunk Driving Accident Victims in the Bronx

Although all car accidents are in some ways traumatizing, crashes caused by impaired drivers tend to lead to more severe injuries. When inebriated, drivers are more likely to speed, overlook traffic signals, and even drive into oncoming traffic. Driving drunk can result in devastating injuries such as:

  • Broken bones
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Concussion (mTBI)
  • Cervical strain (whiplash)
  • Herniated discs
  • Internal organ damage
  • Lacerations
  • Loss of limbs
  • Neck injuries
  • Nerve damage
  • Paralysis
  • Burn injuries
  • Road rash
  • Seat belt injuries
  • Significant disfigurement
  • Soft tissue injuries

Drunk driving is still a persistent issue in New York, despite countless anti-drunk driving campaigns and public safety awareness messages. Although entirely preventable, driving under the influence of alcohol claims a life roughly once every 45 minutes in the United States, according to The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Lever & Ecker, PLLC’s drunk driving accident attorneys believe that individuals who get behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol must be held accountable for their actions, especially when they cause an innocent person to suffer injuries or a fatality.
