Georgia Traffic Accidents
The state of Georgia sees hundreds of thousands of traffic accidents per year. Each year, over 300,000 auto collisions are reported throughout the state. Of these annual wrecks, over 150,000 people suffer injuries and thousands lose their lives. Sadly, most of these collisions are preventable and caused by the actions of negligent drivers.
Negligent driving has become a serious issue in the United States, especially in the past decade. On average, over 94% of reported traffic accidents in the US are caused by the actions of negligent drivers. Drivers in the US display negligence in countless ways. The most common types of driver negligence include:
- Intoxication
- Distraction
- Fatigue
- Speeding
In one recent year, more than 12,000 people ended up losing their lives due to drivers who traveled at unsafe speeds on American roadways. Additionally, more than 400,000 auto collisions happen yearly due to the actions of distracted drivers. Auto collisions caused by driver negligence are often more dangerous and devastating than those that happen for other reasons, which is why it is so important to remain alert, aware, awake, and sober while behind the wheel.
