Drunk Driver on Long Island Crashes through Neighbors’ House

A Lake Ronkonkoma man is facing a DWI charge after driving his vehicle into his next-door neighbor’s house on Sunday November 24, 2014.  According to authorities, the 20-year-old male was driving a 2010 Hyundai Sonata when he crashed through the neighbors’ front door.  The driver fled the scene, but police were able to easily locate him as it was quickly discovered that he lived next door.  Fortunately, all of the individuals inside the house escaped injury.

Driving while intoxicated (DWI) is a dangerous and costly illegal offense.  Alcohol not only severely impairs your driving abilities; it also affects your judgment and coordination. If you are convicted of a DWI as a first offense, the consequences may be harsh. Common consequences include fines of between $500 and $1,000, up to 1 year in jail, a minimum of 3 years’ probation, and revocation of your driver’s license for at least 6 months. In addition, there are a number of other fines and programs that may be imposed on you by the court.

A speeding ticket is always stressful specially when it is a out of state ticket. Hiring 'Daslin' to handle this speeding ticket was a great decision. She immediately jumped on my case and handled entire process/options and she also clearly explained what to expect. It was so impressive that i did not need to do anything at all and the ticket was dismissed😊😊. Thanks to her. I strongly recommend 'Daslin' for any traffic-related issue.
Chris was great, helped me with my landlord issue while being very informational and got right to business to get me back my deposit. Highly recommended !!
