Marin Drunk Driving Car Accident Causes Injuries And Delays

News from Marin County reports that a man has been arrested on a suspicion of drunken driving. The man is charged with causing a drunk driving accident after his car collided with a median wall and caused eight cars to run into each other.

If you have been injured in a drunk driving auto accident, contact an experienced Sacramento personal injury lawyer to begin investigating the incident and help you obtain the compensation you deserve.

Here, the man's Saturn coupe struck the median causing approaching cars to swerve, leading to a chain reaction of five other collisions. Although several people suffered injuries, none were life threatening.

If you have been in a car accident, the first thing to do is to do your best to determine whether you or anyone else in your vehicle needs medical attention. Even if immediate medical attention is not needed, be aware that symptoms often show up days or even weeks after an accident. Traumatic brain injuries are notoriously overlooked as they often are not recognized until days after an accident.

Once medical attention as been secured, do your best to gather information about what happened. Here, although news reports indicate that one driver's actions are to blame, the number of vehicles involved make it crucial to obtain as much information as possible such as other drivers' contact information, potential witness information and general notes concerning how the accident occurred.

In all car accidents, it's wise to contact an experienced California car accident attorney to assist with gathering crucial information, contacting insurance carriers and obtaining the compensation you deserve.
