    A Sober Look At The Law

    Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm Sophia Cruz. My husband had a scare a few years ago. He was hit by a car while riding on his motorcycle. He was following the law, but the other motorist drifted over into his lane. Fortunately, the physics of the accident were such that he only experienced minor scrapes and cuts, but it could have been much worse. I later found out that the other motorist was under the influence while driving. Since then, I have been concerned about the prevalence of drunk driving and have decided to create a legal blog that discusses drunk driving and various other topics.
