When a car accident occurs due to a drunk driver's reckless actions, the immediate focus understandably falls on that individual. They will undoubtedly face legal consequences for their impaired driving and the resulting collision. However, the legal responsibility for the harm caused might extend beyond just the driver. It's crucial for victims to understand that the bar, restaurant, or any business that served alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person who then caused an accident can also be held accountable for the resulting injuries.
Liability for a business in such situations can arise when they serve alcohol to someone who was clearly intoxicated, serve alcohol to a minor, or continue to provide alcohol to a person they knew or should have known was likely to drive. Identifying these circumstances requires a thorough investigation, which is where the expertise of Riders Law Group becomes invaluable.
