Commentary

Intoxicated drivers account for over 28% of all fatal traffic accidents each year. When someone decided to drive intoxicated they show a lack of respect for human life. In this case Ivan Cam cost someone their life. While the family who lost a loved one cannot bring them back they can fight for compensation for the pain and suffering endured due to the neglagence of the driver. – Idiart Law Group
