Georgia Traffic Collisions
Each year, Georgia experiences a staggering number of traffic accidents, with thousands of individuals sustaining injuries.

On average, around 130,000 injury-causing accidents occur annually in Georgia, resulting in the deaths of over 30 people every week due to severe auto collisions. Unfortunately, these statistics highlight the frequency and severity of car accidents in the Peach State.
