According to Merced Police, the alleged DUI crash happened around 11:35 p.m. For what officers believe were DUI reasons, a 43-year-old man in a pickup truck struck one of four cars stopped before some road construction.

Considering the effects of alcohol, it’s wise to avoid driving a car when impaired. If you are intoxicated, turn to a friend or a Rideshare service instead. You will avoid danger and injury, as well as causing harm to others. Remember this the next time you decide to drive while impaired.
