DUI Driver Arrested Following Mission Valley Collision

Mission Valley, CA (October 10, 2024) – A driver of a small white car was hurt following a DUI crash on Friars Road Tuesday night.

The San Diego Police said it was before 11 p.m. when the collision between a pickup truck and a small white car happened on westbound Friars Road near Mission Center Road.

Moreover, the accident report said the impact caused the white car to slam into a light and trapped the driver inside.

The authorities later arrested the truck’s driver on suspicion of driving under the influence.

Meanwhile, officers are conducting a further investigation into the DUI crash on Friars Road.

Always plan for a sober ride. Ensure you have a plan for a safe ride home. If you’re the designated driver, it’s crucial to take that responsibility seriously and never consume alcohol or drugs before getting behind the wheel.

Key Safety Tips to Remember:

  • Never drink and drive.
  • Don’t allow anyone who’s been drinking to drive.
  • If you’re hosting a gathering, make sure everyone has a safe, sober way to get home.
  • Call 911 if you spot a drunk driver on the road.
  • Always wear your seatbelt. It’s your best defense in case of an accident.

Even a single drink can affect your ability to drive safely. Alcohol and drugs impair your coordination, judgment, and reaction time, putting you and others at serious risk. Impaired driving is a leading cause of accidents, injuries, and fatalities. By choosing not to drink and drive, you contribute to the safety of everyone on the road.


What Should the Injured Do Following this Collision?

If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident and suffered physical, emotional, or psychological harm, it’s important to understand your rights. A personal injury can cover a wide range of situations, including car accidents, assaults, slips, falls, or injuries caused by defective products.

When someone fails to meet their duty of care—whether intentionally or through negligence—personal injuries can occur.

  • Physical and emotional pain and suffering
  • Medical expenses
  • Disability or disfigurement
  • Loss of income due to the injury
