Georgia Car Crashes
Car accidents in Georgia happen all too frequently. Georgia is one of the top five states in the nation with the most reported car wrecks per year. On average, the Peach State sees hundreds of thousands of accidents per year that cause injuries to hundreds of thousands of people and take the lives of thousands more. Regrettably, most of these wrecks are totally preventable and caused by driver negligence.
Negligent driving has become a serious issue in the United States, especially in the past decade. Drivers who allow themselves to become intoxicated, distracted, fatigued, or who travel at unsafe speeds cause over 94% of reported car accidents in the United States. Crashes of this nature are much more dangerous and devastating than other types of accidents.
When you or a loved one has been hurt in a traffic accident caused by a negligent driver, you should be able to recover without worrying about your finances. Especially if you become stuck in the hospital with painful injuries that cost a fortune to recover from, you should not have to worry about money. A traffic accident lawyer may be able to help you file a claim for compensation so you can get the financial help you need to pay for the damages that may have resulted from your accident.
