Boat Accidents May Be Caused by an Intoxicated Operator

Boat accidents happen in part because people underestimate certain dangers or may irresponsibly operate a boat. Rivers, lakes and other bodies of water in and around Pennsylvania and New Jersey are often crowded with boats, jet skis and other watercraft. Injuries can occur on a ferry, or ship. With so much traffic on the water, accidents can and will happen through negligence. For example, as with drunk drivers on the roads, an impaired operator of a boat may be liable for injuries in accidents.
