When people are involved in drunk driving accidents they may face serious consequences, but those consequences may be even more harsh if the accident results in someone being injured or killed. One South Carolina woman recently learned that she will be spending a year behind bars for a drunk driving accident that left a passenger in her vehicle dead.
The accident occurred last July around 2 a.m. Police had been alerted that someone was driving erratically. Moments later, the 20-year-old woman hit the median and crossed four lanes of traffic before landing in a ditch. She was later charged with felony DUI.
