Intoxicated Driver endangers Dallas lives

Wrong-way, intoxicated driving plagued the roads of North Texas last week, leading to a series of arrests and at least one death. When drivers, especially drunk drivers, start heading the wrong way on busy streets and highways, the risk for danger quickly heightens. To defend yourself from getting hurt in these situations, police suggest that you watch far ahead and look for other drivers braking, swerving, and avoiding the left lane—wrong-way drivers can mistakenly believe that they’re on a two-lane highway. Driving cautiously can help prevent another driver’s mistake from hurting you.

23-year-old Julia Crain Brooks was arrested late Tuesday night in Irving after colliding with an oncoming police car while driving in the wrong direction on state Highway 161. After receiving reports of a woman driving southbound in the northbound lanes, officers were dispatched to the area, where they made several attempts to get Brooks’ attention. Despite this, she never stopped.

On Friday, January 10th, 2014, 23-year-old Christopher Anthony Sosa was arrested by Dallas police for intoxication assault, stemming from his involvement in a chain-reaction crash that left Interstate 30 over Lake Ray Hubbard closed for most of the day. Sosa’s vehicle was not the first one involved in the crash, and dense fog in the area was likely a major contributing factor in causing the pileup, which happened just before dawn. Police investigated Sosa’s role in the incident, saying that he was speeding when he lost control of his vehicle. He was hospitalized for his injuries and is booked at the Dallas County Jail.

We have detailed before in this blog the numerous penalties for Texas DWI. One of those penalties is the requirement to attend a DWI education program or a DWI intervention program. In both cases the education program must be completed before your license can be re-instated. First time offenders are eligible for an occupational license.

The DWI education program is for first time offenders receiving probation and concentrates on preventing future drunk driving behavior and provides education about Texas DWI laws. The DWI intervention program is for repeat offenders receiving probation and goes further into life-style changes and more in-depth information about substance abuse
