Lockhart, TX — August 10, 2024, Cory Nunnally was injured following an alleged drunk driver accident at around 10:41 p.m. along Highway 142.
Authorities said in preliminary statements that the accident happened in the area of the San Antonio Street and Frio Street intersection.
Details about the accident say that 45-year-old Cory Nunnally was on a Honda motorcycle going westbound on San Antonio Street. An oncoming Volkswagen Passat reportedly left its lane and crashed head-on into Nunnally’s motorcycle. As a result, Nunnally was seriously injured. The other driver was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, and authorities recommended charges for intoxication assault.

If the allegations here are true, then things may seem pretty open-and-shut. Many accidents like this, however, are anything but. This is because anytime alcohol leads to a crash, there’s a good chance a local alcohol provider is responsible for contributing to the accident, as well. When they illegally over-serve someone who is obviously intoxicated, they can face fines, license suspensions, criminal investigations, and potentially liability if it leads to people getting hurt.
Too often, though, this goes overlooked. I’ve handled hundreds of cases against negligent alcohol providers. Unfortunately, it’s not common to see authorities looking into this possibility on their own. Oftentimes, we’re the ones conducting independent investigations and putting negligent alcohol providers on the authorities’ radar. A lot of other providers end up being let off the hook because no one bothered to look for them. That’s why I have to wonder what steps are being taken to investigate this accident. Are authorities being thorough to consider all contributing factors, or is there more to this story?
