Car Accidents in Georgia
Every day in Georgia, more than 340 individuals suffer injuries in car accidents, many of which are caused by reckless or negligent driving. These accidents often result in severe injuries that require immediate medical care, such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, and broken bones. For some victims, these injuries lead to long-term recovery or even permanent disabilities, preventing them from returning to work and disrupting their lives and livelihoods.
While many drivers strive to follow traffic laws and drive responsibly, accidents frequently occur due to the careless actions of others. Common causes of these incidents include speeding, failing to yield the right of way, running stop signs or red lights, distracted driving (such as texting or adjusting the radio), and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These behaviors endanger everyone on the road, creating life-altering consequences for innocent victims.
