Port Richey, FL (November 20, 2018) - A 31-year-old man died Sunday after he was struck by a suspected drunk driver while riding his motorcycle.
The Florida Highway Patrol reports that Dustin Shawn Hogan was traveling westbound on a Honda motorcycle on Embassy Boulevard. Around 5:15 pm, a Toyota Camry operated by Naserodin H. Shooshtari collided with Hogan's motorcycle. Shooshtari was attempting to turn left but failed to yield and turned into the path of Hogan's motorcycle. Hogan was ejected from his motorcycle and was rushed to the hospital where he died from his injuries.
After an investigation, Shooshtari was charged with DUI manslaughter and violation of right-of-way.
Drunk driving can have disastrous consequences for not only the drunk driver but also innocent drivers on the road. Driving while drunk impairs your ability to think clearly and to quickly react to the situations around you. Drunk driving car accidents can cause serious injuries or fatalities, and more than a quarter of all traffic-related deaths are the result of drunk driving accidents.
