Fox40 of Sacramento reports that the Stockton Police Department have arrested a man they found drunk when he crashed his vehicle into a car in front of the Weberstown mall. The accident caused tragedy as the man’s black Infiniti  traveling north-bound t-boned into white BMW turning into the mall.

 

A passenger in the white BMW, Cameron Allison Jr., was pronounced dead at the scene. Relatives and friends informed Fox news that the young man was ass running back for the Lincoln High School football team.

The driver of the black Infiniti, a 31 year old male, was booked on the “suspicion of driving under the influence”. The man has been sent to the county jail on felony charges. Such a tragic incident requires all parties to be accurately and sufficiently represented in the court of law, so that the truth of the matter and the amount of proper justice is delivered.

California Toughest on DUI Charges

California Toughest on DUI Charges

dui chargesAccording to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and LA Weekly, a 3rd of traffic fatalities in California could be blamed on DUI.

According to WalletHub’ analysis, such disasters and tragedies result in strict DUI states such as California. The Bear Flag Republic ranks first in the country for average insurance rate increases for DUI drivers, fifth for jail time, and sixth for suspension of driver’s licenses.

Despite these already stringent regulations, advocacy groups are extremely active in the pursuit of more strict and punishing regulations.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving Group  has suggested additional checkpoints and expanded reasons, writ, and actions in driver’s license revocations. In contrast to WalletHub’s relatively strong rating of California’s stance, Mothers Against Drunk Driving has given California only 3.5 out of 5 stars for its policies against drunk driving. Further suggestions provided by the group have been to support the mass adoption of ignition-interlocks and to make driving drunk with a child passenger a felony.

Authorities suspect that a crash that left three family members and a good Samaritan dead may have been caused by a drunk driver.

A mother of two was severely injured when a white Nissan rammed into her vehicle on August 5th.

She pulled over to the side of the road to account for an overheating Honda’s engine and received aid from a good samaritan in a pick up truck before the impact.

Impact threw the pickup truck across the highway, and “crushed the backseat” of the Honda, causing the deaths of two children in the backseat. The crash momentum also killed the good samaritan, and the mother of two’s mother who had gotten out to take a look at the engine.

The police told news agencies that they found open cans of beer in the Nissan, and that the Nissan’s driver had been taken to the hospital to await a toxicology report. He has refused to speak to police.
