Wrong Way Accident Reminds of Drinking and Driving Risk among College Students
The college experience is an exciting time for many who are living away from home and experiencing an enormous amount of independence for the first time in their lives. The rigor of studying and preparing for exams is offset by the multitude of social activities and parties. There are many college students who join fraternities and sororities that offer social interaction and a fair amount of parties with significant amounts of alcohol. This new level of freedom can pose a challenge as young adults still developing habits for drinking responsibly. A recent fatal wrong way car crash that claimed the lives of five people, including four fraternity brothers, serves as a reminder that college age kids are far more likely to die in a car accident than older adults. Our Cobb County car crash attorneys express our deepest sympathies to the victims of this terrible accident and their families.
