Kansas and Missouri Law Enforcement Out to Prevent Tragic Drunk Driving Crashes Like This One

Last week in Dallas, Texas, two men who were sleeping at a DART bus stop were killed when man driving a Chevy pick up truck slammed into the bus stop killing both men.  The accident happened around 2:30 a.m.  The 50 year-old driver of the pick up was drunk and is being charged with two counts of intoxicated manslaughter.

 

Here at Roswold Law Group, we are are glad that law enforcement officials in both states are working hard to keep these dangerous drivers off our streets.  Recent changes in Kansas and Missouri laws are giving those convicted larger fines and in some cases guaranteed jail time.  That being said, we'd like to thank the men and women who work hard to protect our streets from dangerous drunk drivers.
