Driver Crashes into Building, Charged with DUI for Prescription Drugs

Prescription drugs lead to DUI?  After an SUV crashed into a building in Albany, Georgia, Sunday evening, the woman driver was cited for DUI (driving under the influence), according to Jim Wallace of the WALB News website.  Perhaps surprisingly, the DUI charge was not linked to an alcohol-related accident, but to a crash caused by the influence of prescription drugs.  According to Wallace, Albany resident Deborah Davis, 57, was intoxicated on prescription drugs when she ran her vehicle through a building after leaving the roadway of Clark Avenue.  She received treatment for injuries at a local hospital. 

Although no others were reportedly injured in this accident, many DUI accidents involve injuries to innocent victims and result in large medical bills, lengthy pain and suffering, and other losses.  If you have taken prescription drugs, and the label warns against driving after taking them, take every precaution to avoid getting on the roadway.  If you have been injured by a driver who was cited with DUI, please feel free to call our office at 770-577-3020 for free answers to any questions you may have.
