Glad you and everyone in your car is alright. Hope for speedy recovery.
Screw drunk drivers, put then behind bars. I feel like to support "zero tolerance" after every accidents like these during holiday seasons.

[cipher5]

WOW! Glad you guys are ok!

[Chewy734]

Wow, I'm sorry to hear this happened to you and your family! I hope for a quick and complete recovery for everyone.

Would be nice to try and write some kind of commentary or follow up to the article detailing exactly who the occupants were in the collision. It seems to be written as if everything was "a-ok" post-accident, whereas you and your passengers obviously have injuries that need to heal.

It's not like she had hit a car with four healthy college-aged dudes but rather a pregnant woman and another woman with a now-broken nose.

That polished "realtor image" will tarnish quicker when people know of her true behavior and recklessness. Maybe a detailed account of this event posted to the company facebook page?

At least she seems well off enough to be able to recoup some of your losses, whether with her insurance company or if you have to sue. She probably can afford it in this case...

Holy shit... Glad your okay and the baby is okay!

Put that woman behind bars!

Get a good lawyer asap. Even if you can't get her criminally you can sue the crap out of her. Clearly they have some assets worth going after.

The fact that she was found drunk shortly after, DWI for the 3rd time, 4 of you vs 1 of her you should EASILY be able to get an award. I suspect she will want to settle out of court fairly quickly.

I would get a lawyer NOW.

[Chrisrw]

I'm glad you guys are ok. I pray that the baby is completely ok (and I will be doing so!)

Three points I'd like to give you:
1) please be a good witness to you Crown (court appointed lawyer that will try her criminally). Spread your unwillingness to take a plea bargin from her defense, but be willing to attend court. This is one ofthe most important things you can do. A judge seeing four adults get on the stand and explain how she altered their lives and almost killed an unborn, they are far more lowly to hand out actual jail time (which she will certainly grey to avoid via a plea bargin. She refused to comply with the breath demand so she has lost the ability to argue certain things in court, and plea is one of her only outs. Also be sure that your crown KNOWS, that you are willing to testify to the fact that you saw her as the driver, and you also watched her until the police came and she did not drink anything in that time.

2) sue her civilly. That will hurt her big time and will be fairly easy to do based on what happened. Take everything you can, only because it needs to happen. When you finish, she will need to recover for years. This needs to end up worse for her than you. This is how you make that happen. Drive the point home.

3) I THINK THAT E90POST can help!! Anyone remember back on bimmerforums that guy with the "ninja business" or what ever that stole a parking spot and everyone started messing with his company? That should truly make a deserved return here. I'll start... I'll let ya know what what I manage to do

[Chrisrw]

I'll be contacting her to come and give me an estimate and speak with me about selling my home. Seeing as how I live in CANADA, it won't actually be my home.!but sadly she'll waste so cab fair and a few hours getting there before she knows that.

Yeah, THIS!!! ASAP!!

Hit her where it HURTS $$$$$

GLad to see everyone made it out without any serious injuries.

[yamazaho]

Glad to see you guys are okay, crazy drivers are just everywhere these days.

[bigslick82]

Thank God you were safe. That looks awful and glad to see you made it out with very little injuries. Hopefully, you can get something positive out of this - like a judgment or getting her put in jail.

I hate drunk driving. One of the most selfish and thoughtless decisions people can make.

just found this update:

On Wednesday evening, Charlotte DePersia's lawyer said he and his client are looking forward to their day in court on the real estate agent's most recent drunken driving charge.

Tad Scharfenberg of Bohemia said he doesn't believe his client was drinking and driving on Saturday night when Southampton Town police said her Land Rover collided with a BMW on Montauk Highway in Bridgehampton. "From what I can see, I don't believe she's committed a crime. I don't believe she was intoxicated," he said.

DePersia, a director of sales at Corcoran in East Hampton, did not submit to a breathylzer test to measure her blood alcohol amount following her arrest. She was charged with felony DWI and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle in the first-degree for reportedly driving with a suspended license. Her SUV was impounded under the county DWI seizure law.

Four people in the BMW were injured in the crash that occurred just after 11:30 p.m., virtually shutting down the highway between Mitchell's Lane and Newlight Lane for 45 minutes.

DePersia, who was freed on her own recognizance on Sunday morning, has been arrested on DWI charges twice before. He represented her on a 2008 misdemeanor DWI arrest. The outcome of that arrest isn't clear. Scharfenberg woudldn't comment on the old case.

Scharfenberg said his client will fight the charge. "It's a case we're looking forward to our day in court for," he said.

now that sleazebag of a bitch is claiming she wasn't under the influence!!

Does it matter? Her attorney said, and I quote "From what I can see, I don't believe she's committed a crime....."

She operated a motor vehicle without a valid driver's license... when did that stop being a crime?

[Joonsup]

i guess NY don't have that 3 strikes and you're out law like CA? (or at least I think CA still does). If she was in CA, I think she gets life in prison no? Glad you guys are ok. Hope she gets punished to the full extent of the law

^ For a 3rd offense, that's a joke.

[Joonsup]

wow those offenses don't seem like much at all. Thank God no one got seriously hurt

[MisterSkiMask]

The problem with the system is that DUI is very profitable for the state. If we wanted to eliminate DUI we could, all we have to do is make the consequences stiff enough.

[Chrisrw]

Umm no one agrees with me about screwing with her business yet? She's claiming it is all lies now. Let's make her remember

[UncleWede]

1 conviction where she lost her license
1 (pending) 2nd DWI action
1 recent crash where she refused to have her BAC measured

and SHE'S STILL RELEASED ON HER ON RECOGNIZANCE?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
