Drunk Driving Accidents
Does the driver's BAC have to be at least 0.08 in order for them to be liable for my injuries from a Kansas City alcohol-related accident?
In both Missouri and Kansas drunk driving refers to driving any vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) at a level of 0.08% or higher. However, impaired driving means that the driver’s skills, including judgment, coordination, and response time, are affected with a lower BAC or that the driver is using drugs.
577.010 RSMo.: Driving While Intoxicated: A person commits the crime of "driving while intoxicated" if he operates a motor vehicle while in an intoxicated or drugged condition. The statute is not limited to alcohol, and "drugged", can include drugs taken under prescription.
Any driver who drives recklessly, whether it is because of alcohol, drugs or bad judgment, is liable for the injuries he causes. To learn more, contact the Kansas City DUI accident attorneys at Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys.
