Commentary on Alleged DWI Accident on Moursund Boulevard in San Antonio
If the allegations here are true, then getting help for those affected by the crash could be far more complex than people realize. Drunk driving wrecks often involve two faulty parties: the drunk drivers, and the alcohol providers that served them. Why is that?

Essentially, dram shop law says that an alcohol provider who over-serves an obviously intoxicated person can be liable for damages resulting from that intoxication. Whether it's a bar, liquor store, restaurant, or gas station, businesses that break the rules and get people hurt can be held accountable for those actions. Dram shop therefore can be an opportunity to get people the help they need and to ensure negligent businesses clean up their act. Is that something authorities looked into here?
