I pursued him till the cops came and pulled him over. they arrested him for DWI. who was at fault and is there anything i can do?

It seems like it was the drunk driver's fault.

This can be a serious case that needs to be developed by a knowledgable attorney as soon as possible.

The first goal will be to make sure that you are ok and that your bike damage is paid for. Then we would need to pursue the drunk driver and his insurance company.

I have handled lots of cases like this involving drunk drivers.

Call me for a FREE consultation 512-827-7548 (8AM to 10PM). There is no obligation by calling and I only work on a contingency agreement (meaning you don't pay anything unless I can win for you).

If you don't call me...PLEASE get a lawyer so that the drunk driver's insurance company cannot take advantage of you.
