If it’s true that alcohol contributed to this accident, that might make things seem pretty open-and-shut. However, it could actually make the investigations far more complex. It’s not always as simple as just charging the alleged drunk driver and that’s that. Investigations would also have to find out where the alcohol came from. Let me explain.
In Texas, alcohol providers violate the law when they over-serve someone that is obviously intoxicated. If that intoxication then leads to people getting hurt, it exposes those alcohol providers to potential consequences, including fines, responsibility for the accident, criminal investigations, and liquor license suspension. By holding those negligent alcohol providers accountable, victims and families can see consequences for the harm done to them, and they can help ensure those negligent establishments clean up their act before more people get hurt.
So, if alcohol really was a factor here, it’s important to know what all authorities are looking into. If their investigations begin and end at the crash scene, they could be missing something important.
