According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), there were 1,077 traffic deaths in accidents involving drunk drivers in 2021. The number of people killed in DUI accidents represented 24% of the total motor vehicle traffic deaths in 2021.

Dallas reported 1,065 drunk driving accidents in 2021. That number included:

  • 64 traffic fatalities
  • 129 serious injuries

  • Medical bills and expenses
  • Personal care and/or nursing care
  • Lost wages
  • Out-of-pocket expenses
  • Physical therapy and other rehabilitative care
  • Decreased future earning capacity

In addition to your financial damages, you can also recover compensation for the pain and suffering caused by the accident. These damages are called non-economic damages and include the following:

  • Physical injuries and pain
  • Emotional distress
  • Disabilities and impairments
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Mental anguish
  • Diminished quality of life

  • Head-on Collision
  • Hit and Run Collisions
  • Rollover Accidents

What Is the Deadline To File a Dallas DUI Accident Claim in Texas?

Most car accident claims must be filed within two years of the accident date. However, there are exceptions to the Texas statute of limitations for personal injury cases. Therefore, you could have less time or more time to file.

If you fail to file your claim before the deadline expires, you lose the right to pursue a legal claim against the drunk driver. The best way to avoid this problem is to call Jay Murray Personal Injury Lawyers now to speak with an attorney.
