Matt Wickey was on Woodward Avenue near West 11 Mile when his life changed forever.

“It was actually my birthday. I was driving home from work,” he said.

But instead of going out to celebrate, which he and his wife Lesa had planned, he spent the night in the hospital.

The crash was all caught on dashcam video. A driver with a blood alcohol level of nearly three times the legal limit, according to a report from Royal Oak Police Department, plowed into parked cars stopped at a light on Woodward.

The driver was convicted of DWI.
