Georgia Car Crashes
Georgia sees hundreds of thousands of car wrecks every year, averaging over 300,000 collisions annually. These wrecks can happen for countless reasons, but the main contributing factors almost always involve driver negligence. Negligent driving is behind over 90% of reported auto accidents in the United States today.
Driver negligence comes in many forms, but the most common are intoxication, distraction, fatigue, and speeding. These dangerous driver behaviors are behind millions of annual auto accidents in the US each year. Distraction alone is responsible for 10% of fatal accidents nationwide, while intoxicated driving causes nearly 30% of all deadly crashes in the U.S. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accidents caused by negligent drivers tend to be far more devastating than those caused by non-negligent drivers.
If you or someone you love were recently hurt in an accident caused by a negligent driver, you should be able to recover without having to worry about your finances.
