Commentary on Car Accident on Lockhill Selma Road in Castle Hills
It's not clear what happened here, but one thing folks tend to assume after crashes late in the evening is that someone was probably drunk. That's certainly important to consider, especially if a local alcohol provider over-served someone. Something authorities often overlook is dram shop law, which says that alcohol providers can be liable for accidents resulting from them over-serving an obviously intoxicated person. That said, there are many other possibilities to consider here, and it's important to avoid jumping to conclusions until there have been more thorough investigations.
