A Virginia Beach, VA, police officer was the victim of a drunk driving accident instead of the first responder. A car struck the officer’s cruiser on Virginia Beach Blvd near the Colony Trailer Park early in the morning of June 25, 2012. The sideswipe collision caused the police car to smash into a telephone pole so violently that the pole snapped in half.
The at-fault driver was identified by Johnathan R. Fullington, and he has been charged with driving under the influence, as well as with drug possession.
The Virginia Personal Injury Lawyers’ Perspective
Drunk drivers are a danger to themselves, other drivers and own passengers. Passengers in any car accident have the right to sue the driver’s car insurance to help them recover from their injuries and loss of income.
