Davidsonville, Maryland DUI/DWI Attorney


Two Die in Alcohol-Related Crash in Davidsonville, Maryland

Two people died in a head-on collision Monday night and police believe alcohol was a factor.  One victim, at 22 years old, was driving an Audi TT, and the other victim, a 60 year old woman, was driving a Toyota Yaris.  The driver of the Audi is believed to have crossed the center line and crashed right into the driver of the Toyota head on.  The accident occurred in Davidsonville, Anne Arundel County, Maryland on Central Avenue.  Police are still investigating the scene to determine the exact cause of the crash.  http://www.wbaltv.com/news/headon-crash-kills-one-seriously-injures-another/30247682?linkId=11184560

It is unfortunate how often drunk driving related fatal accidents occur.  It is never smart to get behind the wheel of a car after you have been drinking.  Assuming the police are correct in their belief that alcohol was involved, the driver who drove under the influence of alcohol made an irresponsible decision doing so by putting their life and the lives of others in grave danger.

If you have been arrested for a DUI/DWI it is important that you consult an experienced Maryland DUI attorney immediately because DUI is a criminal offense and carries potentially severe penalties.  An experienced attorney can guide you through the court process and find any possible defenses that can either mitigate the penalties in the case, or in some instances, lead to an acquittal or dismissal.  Portner & Shure has a satellite office in Annapolis and Glen Burnie to serve our DUI/DWI clients.
