The vast majority of adults in America consume alcohol on a weekly, if not daily basis and the people of Georgia are no different. While the rates and the quantities may vary, it is safe to say that it is a staple of Georgian life. Alcohol is used to celebrate, to commiserate, to socialize, to blow off steam, to relax, and a variety of other social reasons. While it obviously serves a purpose and is not an issue if consumed wisely and in moderation, drinking can lead to some very negative things, especially when driving.  That is  where our DUI car collision and drunk driving lawyer in Buford can help.
