Commentary:

While the specifics of this accident are still being ironed out, people may have some questions on alcohol related accidents that are pretty common in situations like this. Many people would like to know what options they may have, and researching liquor liability laws in your state could be helpful. Some states are equipped with a set of liquor liability laws that make sure bars and liquor stores don’t serve to people who are clearly drunk, and dont serve people to the point of gross intoxication. If any bar in a state with good liquor liability laws fails to serve alcohol responsibly, the bar in question can be held liable WITH the driver they fueled if the facts line up.

I'm a former employee. I had brought up this exact scenario and suggested a maintenance procedure that would eliminate the possibility of this type injury. Obviously my warning went unheeded.

I was actually a couple cars back from this wreck, one of the first on the scene, and helped administer CPR on the victims. The truck driver was going way too fast, but it was actually his trailer that swung around and hit the suv, the semi-truck ended in the median.

A lot of people say smack about lawyers, but I want to say that I'm glad there is a way that people who are wronged by corporate neglect can get justice and force change. We are living in a world where corporations and govt care less than ever about common people, and I support your work. I hope I will never need your services.

Thank you for posting these accident articles on your site. At the company that I work for, e deal with monitoring construction activity and work around trenches and all sorts of construction equipment/vehicles. I sometimes wonder if construction companies have enough safety training to inform employees of how to protect themselves while on the job.
