Restructuring Insurance Coverage for Drunk Drivers
By AVI PERRY
While the gravity and prevalence of drunk driving in the United States are well documented, the actual facts are still startling. Someone is killed due to drunk driving approximately every forty-five minutes. In 2008 alone, there were nearly 11,773 fatalities produced by drunk driving accidents. At least half of all motor vehicle deaths are a product of intoxication. About three in every ten Americans will be involved in an alcoholrelated crash at some point in their lives; in 2001, drunk driving accidents injured more than half a million people, an average of nearly one injury every minute. Nearly one and a half million drivers were arrested in 2006 for driving under the influence.
