Who can sue in a drunk driving accident case?
Generally speaking, any injured person has the right to bring a claim against the drunk driver for the injuries they sustain in the accident subject to the limitations of the Minnesota No-Fault Automobile Insurance Act. In addition, in the event that somebody is killed as a result of a drunk driver, his or her heirs and next of kin have a right to bring a claim against the drunk driver and any bar or restaurant that served the drunk driver intoxicating beverages.
