Driving
under the influence of alcohol is a serious offense and is the direct
cause of many wrongful deaths in Michigan. In the state of Michigan, any
driver with blood-alcohol absorption (BAC) above .08 percent is
considered intoxicated under the law.
The number of Michigan
car accidents related to alcohol consumption is enormous and even when
not fatal; injuries from those accidents are often catastrophic.
Statistics reveal the largest number of Michigan accidents involving
alcohol occur on Saturdays and Sundays.
It is very important
that the investigation in to an alcohol related accident begin quickly.
This is in large part because the law also requires the bar or
restaurant where the alcohol was served to be notified of the accident
and resultant injuries within a specific time frame. A delay in
beginning the investigation could mean the time limit for pursuing legal
action against the bar expires.
