An impaired driver struck the woman \u2014 a devastating impact that investigators believe occurred while the driver was operating the vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs.<\/p>\n\n      <p>Rather than stopping to render aid, the driver fled the scene \u2014 compounding the horror of an already tragic event and leaving the victim without immediate assistance. Emergency responders with the Oakland Fire Department and Oakland Police Department arrived at the intersection and found the victim critically injured. Despite their efforts, she was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n\n      <p>The Oakland Police Department launched an immediate investigation, treating the case as a priority DUI hit-and-run fatality. Officers gathered evidence from the crash scene, including physical trace evidence, surveillance camera footage from nearby businesses, and witness accounts from people who had observed the collision or the suspect vehicle fleeing. Using this information, investigators identified and located the suspect.<\/p>\n\n      <p>The driver was apprehended and taken into custody on charges of DUI causing death under California Vehicle Code Section 23153 and felony hit-and-run under California Vehicle Code Section 20001 \u2014 serious felony charges that carry potentially lengthy prison terms. The Fruitvale neighborhood in East Oakland where the crash occurred is a dense, pedestrian-active corridor, making the danger posed by impaired drivers in the area especially acute.<\/p>\n\n      <h2>Legal Options for the Victim&#8217;s Family<\/h2>\n      <div class=\"slf-legal-options\">\n        <div class=\"slf-legal-option\">\n          <div class=\"slf-legal-option-header\">\n            <h3>Wrongful Death Claim Against the DUI Driver<\/h3>\n          <\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-legal-option-body\">\n            <p>The family of the elderly victim has the right to pursue a civil <a href=\"\/wrongful-death-lawyer\/\">wrongful death claim<\/a> against the driver under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 377.60.

DUI causing death under California Vehicle Code Section 23153 can be charged as a felony. Combined with felony hit-and-run under CVC Section 20001, the defendant may face a decade or more in state prison, heavy fines, and mandatory restitution to the victim&#8217;s family.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"slf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-question\">\n          Can a family file a civil lawsuit even if the DUI driver is criminally prosecuted?\n          <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M7.41 8.59L12 13.17l4.59-4.58L18 10l-6 6-6-6z\"\/><\/svg>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-answer\">Yes. Criminal prosecution and civil lawsuits are entirely separate proceedings. A conviction in criminal court does not prevent \u2014 and in many ways strengthens \u2014 the family&#8217;s civil wrongful death claim. The family may pursue compensation for financial losses, loss of companionship, and potentially punitive damages based on the driver&#8217;s willful misconduct.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"slf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-question\">\n          What if the DUI driver who fled has limited insurance?\n          <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M7.41 8.59L12 13.17l4.59-4.58L18 10l-6 6-6-6z\"\/><\/svg>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-answer\">If the at-fault driver carries minimal or no insurance, the victim&#8217;s family may be able to recover through uninsured motorist (UM) coverage in the victim&#8217;s own policy, as well as through the family&#8217;s UM policies. An attorney can also explore whether any dram shop liability exists if the driver was served alcohol at a licensed establishment before the crash.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"slf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-question\">\n          Can punitive damages be awarded in a DUI wrongful death case?\n          <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M7.41 8.59L12 13.17l4.59-4.58L18 10l-6 6-6-6z\"\/><\/svg>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"slf-faq-answer\">Yes. Under California Civil Code Section 3294, punitive damages are available when a defendant acts with malice, oppression, or conscious disregard for the safety of others. Courts have consistently found that choosing to drive while intoxicated constitutes the type of willful, egregious conduct that justifies punitive damages \u2014 especially when combined with fleeing the scene of a fatal crash.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- Related Resources -->\n  <section class=\"slf-news-related\">\n    <div class=\"slf-news-related-wrap\">\n      <h2>Related Resources<\/h2>\n      <div class=\"slf-related-grid\">\n        <a href=\"\/dui-accident-lawyer\/\" class=\"slf-related-card\">\n          <div class=\"slf-related-label practice\">Practice Area<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-title\">DUI Accident Lawyer<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-desc\">Fighting for victims and families devastated by drunk or drugged drivers throughout Oakland and the greater Bay Area.<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n        <a href=\"\/hit-and-run-accident\/\" class=\"slf-related-card\">\n          <div class=\"slf-related-label practice\">Practice Area<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-title\">Hit-and-Run Accident Attorney<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-desc\">Helping families of hit-and-run victims pursue justice and full compensation, even when the driver initially fled the scene.<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n        <a href=\"\/wrongful-death-lawyer\/\" class=\"slf-related-card\">\n          <div class=\"slf-related-label practice\">Practice Area<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-title\">Wrongful Death Lawyer<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-desc\">Compassionate representation for families who have lost a loved one to a DUI driver&#8217;s reckless and criminal conduct.<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n        <a href=\"\/pedestrian-accident-lawyer\/\" class=\"slf-related-card\">\n          <div class=\"slf-related-label practice\">Practice Area<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-title\">Pedestrian Accident Lawyer<\/div>\n          <div class=\"slf-related-desc\">Dedicated advocacy for pedestrian accident victims and their families, including those injured or killed by impaired drivers at intersections.<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- CTA Section -->\n  <section class=\"slf-news-cta\">\n    <div class=\"slf-news-cta-wrap\">\n      <hr class=\"slf-news-cta-rule\">\n      <h2>Lost a Loved One to a Drunk Driver?<\/h2>\n      <p class=\"slf-news-cta-sub\">Our attorneys have recovered over $1 billion for injured clients and grieving families.
