1. Do I need medical attention even if I do not think my injuries are serious?

Yes. Always seek medical attention after falling victim to a drunk driving accident, even if you think you sustained only minor injuries, or if you do not see any visible trauma. Some severe accident injuries can take up to a few days to show symptoms, but a doctor can diagnose them immediately and begin treating you before they threaten your life and long-term health. In addition, seeking prompt medical attention protects your legal rights by putting your injuries on the record as having resulted from a drunk driving crash.
