One Injured in Alleged Drunk Driving Accident on SW Military Drive and Bynum in San Antonio, Texas

SAN ANTONIO, TX — One person was hurt in a two-vehicle accident that happened in San Antonio, Texas on Friday, November 7th, 2014. The article from KSAT said that the accident happened at about 8;30 Friday night.

An as-of-yet unidentified woman was hurt when the Chevy Avalanche she was a passenger in was hit by another vehicle near the intersection of Southwest Military Drive and Bynum Avenue. It is not clear from the news report what happened in the accident.

One woman sustained a broken jaw in the accident.

The driver of the offending vehicle was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving.

San Antonio Police are still investigating the crash.

Scene of the Accident

Commentary:

If toxicology tests on the offending driver in this accident come back, and alcohol was in fact the cause of the crash, then this needs to be investigated as the crime that it is. Meaning, the driver needs to be investigated, and his whereabouts before the accident need to be determined. Why? Because if a bartender or server served this person to the point of intoxication, or failed to cut them off, they broke the law just like the driver did when they got behind the wheel. Believe it or not, bartenders and servers have a legal responsibility to not create drunk people. Doing so is illegal, and the bar that violates these laws can and should be held responsible for the accident. Other bars have been held accountable for the accidents they failed to prevent by irresponsible service, if there was a bar involved in this accident, why should they be any different?

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.
