In fact, most of the latest traffic statistics from the Georgia Department of Transportation predicted that the state would see over 350,000 car accidents in 2021. Even with the widespread coronavirus pandemic, driving accidents increased dramatically in our state.

The hazards of our roads and the recklessness of drivers, such as texting while driving and driving under the influence, caused almost 1,200 deaths and at least 118,000 injuries. Those at fault in vehicle accidents should be prepared to pay a hefty amount of money, which naturally worsens the situation.

It should go without saying that those injured in accidents should not have to pay for their medical care.
