Not always. Being charged once or twice would not be viewed as mentally ill, but a large amount of DUI charges may be viewed as mentally ill, depending on the case.but then again it depends on your definition of mentally ill.

What are your rights if you are hit by a drunk driver while sitting at a stop light?
The same thing that anyone would be entitled to if hit by a sober driver: repair or total loss settlement of the vehicle; possible medical coverage if your state doesn't require you to have your own auto medical coverage; and possibly a bodily injury claim if the person sitting at the light was injured. The "drunk driver" part could come into play if, say, the bodily injury portion of the claim went to trial. A sympathetic jury or judge might say the drunk driver's condition at the time of the loss would increase the value of a bodily injury claim. Still, the drunk driver's insurance carrier would only pay the value of the bodily injury claim, which doesn't include punitive damages found against the drunk driver.
