Irving, TX — August 5, 2024, German Bernal and two others were injured following a car accident at around 12:48 a.m. along California Crossing Road.
According to initial details about the crash, it happened in the area of California Crossing Road and Riverside Drive.
Investigators said that 36-year-old German Bernal and a 35-year-old man were passengers in a Land Rover driven by a 37-year-old man. The Land Rover was going along westbound California Crossing. While doing so, the vehicle apparently swerved off the side of the road where it crashed into the end of a bridge barrier. Due to the crash, Bernal and the other two men in the vehicle were reportedly seriously injured.

Currently, authorities allege that intoxication was a factor in the accident. What I haven’t seen, though, is if authorities suspect alcohol or drugs. Believe it or not, this makes a significant difference in the avenues available to those harmed in the crash. This is due to alcohol providers being responsible when an accident happens due to the intoxication of someone they unlawfully over-served. While a lot of people understandably put all of their focus on the drivers in these situations, there could be a bar, restaurant, or liquor store who broke the law and contributed to the crash being let off the hook. Is that something authorities have looked into here, or is there more to this story that has yet to be investigated?
