Arizona Vehicular Accident 2019: DUI Dad tragically kills his own son Dec 2019
Driving under the influence is sadly a common cause of Arizona Vehicular Accident 2019, and in December 2019 a car accident that was caused by a DUI driver ended in total tragedy as the child in the car died. The dad who was driving at the time, jumped a curb before hitting a traffic post killing his son at the scene. Police arrested the driver and found him to be driving under the influence of alcohol.
Arizona Vehicular Accident 2019: Police warn about distracted driving after two teens die in separate incidents.
We’ve previously covered distracted drivers and their impact on accident figures, but in November 2019, tragedy struck not once but twice as a direct result of drivers being distracted by smart devices in their cars. On 15 November, in Peoria, a 14-year-old boy was struck and tragically killed by a vehicle as he was in a crosswalk and crossing the street near Peoria High School. Heartbreakingly, on the same day, a few hours later, a 13-year-old Payton Munger was struck by a school bus at the intersection of 144th Avenue and Indian School Road. Both cases are still ongoing but the Sheriff involved released a sobering statement about drivers becoming distracted behind the wheel.
Arizona Vehicular Accident 2019: The child records her own mother drink-driving.
A rather more positive ending to a drink-driving story was that of a 10-year-old girl from Glendale filming her own mother getting behind the wheel of her car under the influence of alcohol before then calling 911 to report her. Her quick-thinking move ensured that any DUI accident was luckily prevented as the Police were able to stop the vehicle and later arrested the mother for DUI.
