Indiana Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer
March 29, 2010 | Comments Off
John P. Young is your Indiana/Indianapolis drunk driver accident lawyer. Mr. Young has been representing Hoosiers injured by drunk drivers for 22 years. Mr. Young is a long time member of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (www.madd.org.) Mr. Young has been in attendance at MADD’s victim impact panels, as a guest of a family whose daughter and granddaughter were killed by a drunk driver, and has witnessed the devastating effects of drunk driving accidents on Hoosiers and their families. Other injuries discussed at these impact panels include broken bones, brain injury, spinal cord injury resulting in paralysis such as paraplegia and quadriplegia, blindness, burns and amputation.
Even a few decades ago, drunk driving was a crime upon which society looked the other way. Today, thanks to the efforts of the law enforcement community, organizations such as MADD and trial Lawyers such as Mr. Young, we have changed the attitude toward this crime to making it socially unacceptable. Yet there is still much work to be done.
The current statistics tell:
- MADD estimates that 515,000 people are injured in alcohol-related crashes each year.
- About 3 in every 10 Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some time in their lives.
- In 2004, there were 16694 fatalities in alcohol-related crashes.
- In 2004, alcohol contributed to 39 percent of the fatal crashes nationwide.
In Indiana, a person is considered to be driving under the influence of alcohol if their Blood Alcohol Content is .08 mg/dl. The only sure way to avoid being a drunk driver is to never drive after you have been drinking. Teach your children this truth, it may save their life and the lives of innocent Hoosiers and their families.
John P. Young is working hard, using the civil justice system to force drunk drivers to fairly compensate (to make up for the harm they cause) innocent Hoosiers and their families.
