In the case above, the driver was taken into custody on suspicion of DWI. Texas is ranked number one when it comes to alcohol-impaired driving fatalities. In 2018, there were 940 people killed in car accidents when a driver was under the influence of alcohol. Most drunk driving accidents occur on a Saturday between 2:00 am and 3:00 am.
