D.B. was driving with his wife and son as passengers when another car came flying around a curve, fishtailed, and hit his vehicle. When police arrived at the scene, they found alcohol and marijuana in the other driver’s car. D.B. suffered from a crushed foot, a blood clot, and neck and back pain. D.B.’s wife and son also suffered injuries in the crash.
