Georgia Auto Collisions
Georgia reports hundreds of thousands of auto accidents each year, with approximately 300,000 crashes occurring on average annually. Unfortunately, a significant portion of these incidents result in injuries, and in too many cases, fatalities. Each year, more than 1,500 lives are tragically lost in traffic collisions across the state.
Many of these accidents are caused by driver negligence. Whether it’s distraction, intoxication, or speeding, reckless behaviors behind the wheel remain among the leading contributors to devastating collisions. In fact, across the U.S., over 93% of reported crashes involve some form of driver error.
Distracted driving alone is responsible for millions of accidents every year and contributes to about 1 in 10 fatal crashes. Driving under the influence is a factor in nearly 30% of deadly wrecks, while driver fatigue causes over 1,500 fatalities annually.
If you or someone close to you has been seriously injured in a crash caused by a negligent driver, the aftermath can feel overwhelming. From medical expenses and time away from work to emotional stress and physical pain, the burden can quickly become too much to bear alone. Fortunately, legal support is available.
