Nashville Auto Accident Attorney Reminds Drivers To Report Dangerous Drivers To Police

Report Dangerous Drivers

As an experienced Tennessee auto accident attorney I often suggest to my clients and readers that they make good use of their cell phones when they see a problem driver on the highway. If you see someone who drives as if they were drunk, an aggressive driver, or a road rage incident, get the tag number and description of the car, pull over and call 911 in urban areas and *847 in rural areas for the State Troopers and report what you saw.

Reference a recent incident in Rogersville reported in local news media where a citizen reported a woman at a filling station who appeared to be drunk and had a small child in her vehicle. Police responded and indeed, she was under the influence, in the drivers seat with the keys in the ignition. She failed the field sobriety tests and submitted to a blood test.

There’s no telling whether the called saved the life of the child or some other innocent driver, but keep in mind that drunk driving is one of America’s deadliest crimes. In Tennessee in 2008, 327 people were killed in crashes where the driver or motorcyclist had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or higher.

If you or a loved one is involved in a Tennessee automobile accident caused by a drunk driver contact the experienced Nashville automobile accident lawyers at Phillip Miller & Associates and find out about your rights and remedies.
