How Driver Negligence Causes Car Accidents

Most car accidents are preventable. They frequently occur because a driver failed to follow traffic laws or exercise reasonable care behind the wheel.

DUI

Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs slows reaction time, impairs judgment, and reduces a driver’s ability to safely operate a vehicle. These crashes are often severe and can involve complicated legal and insurance issues, especially when injuries are significant.

Speeding

Speeding reduces the time a driver has to react to changing road conditions and increases the force of impact in a crash. Accidents involving excessive speed often lead to serious injuries because vehicles absorb greater force.

Illegal Lane Changes

Sudden or improper lane changes can result in sideswipes or multi-vehicle collisions, particularly in congested traffic. These actions often leave other drivers with little time to react, increasing the likelihood of injury.

Fatigued Driving

Fatigued driving occurs when a driver operates a vehicle without adequate rest. Fatigue can slow reaction time, impair decision-making, and cause drivers to miss hazards they would otherwise notice.

Distracted Driving

Texting, phone use, eating, adjusting navigation systems, or interacting with passengers can divert attention from the road. Even brief distractions can result in serious crashes.

Disobeying Traffic Laws

Ignoring traffic signals, failing to yield, or disregarding posted signs puts everyone at risk. These violations often occur at intersections, where collisions are more likely to cause significant injuries.

Unsafe Turns

Making wide turns, turning from the wrong lane, or failing to check for oncoming traffic frequently causes side-impact collisions. These crashes can be especially dangerous due to limited protection on the sides of vehicles.

Who Is Liable for Your Injuries?

Determining liability after a car accident is not always straightforward. Depending on the circumstances, one or more parties may be responsible for your injuries, including:

• Another driver who acted negligently
• An employer, if the at-fault driver was working at the time of the crash
• A vehicle owner who allowed an unsafe driver to use their car
• A government entity responsible for unsafe road conditions

We investigate the facts of the case to identify all potentially responsible parties. This step is critical to ensure that all available sources of compensation are considered.

Case Results

$550,000 Settlement: Car Crash / Appearance Altering Orthopedic Injury

State Farm initially represented that there was only one insurance policy in the amount of $100,000.00 to cover the teenager's claims and tendered that amount. We accepted the tender based on the representation that this was the only insurance policy available to satisfy the teenager's claims, but required, as a condition of settlement, that the Defendant sign an Affidavit under oath that this was the only policy. Approximately one month after the initial settlement, State Farm "located" another policy and an additional amount in the amount of $450,000.00 was paid to finally settle the case.

$225,000 - Automobile injury

In a recent case, the plaintiff was awarded a $225,000 settlement for injuries sustained in an automobile accident. The accident occurred when the defendant, distracted while driving, failed to notice a red light and collided with the plaintiff's vehicle. The impact caused the plaintiff to suffer significant injuries, including a fractured leg and a concussion, necessitating extensive medical treatment and a lengthy recovery period. Evidence presented during the trial clearly demonstrated the defendant's negligence in maintaining attention while driving, which directly led to the accident. This settlement underscores the critical importance of staying focused behind the wheel to prevent such avoidable incidents and ensure the safety of all road users.

Car Accident FAQs

What if I am not sure who caused the accident?

You don’t need to know who was at fault to speak with a car accident lawyer. An attorney can investigate the crash, review reports and evidence, and help determine whether another party’s negligence played a role.

Do I have to deal with the insurance company myself?

No. A lawyer can handle communications with insurance companies on your behalf. This helps prevent mistakes, reduces stress, and allows you to focus on your recovery.

What if my injuries did not seem serious at first?

Some injuries take time to fully appear. If symptoms worsen or new issues arise days or weeks later, you may still have a claim. A lawyer can help assess how delayed injuries affect your case.

Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault?

Georgia law allows recovery in many cases even when more than one driver shares responsibility. A lawyer can explain how comparative negligence may apply to your situation and what it means for your claim.

How long does a car accident case usually take?

The timeline depends on the severity of injuries, the complexity of the case, and whether litigation becomes necessary. Some cases resolve through negotiation, while others require more time and preparation.

What kind of damages may be available in a car accident case?

Damages may include medical expenses, lost income, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and property damage. An attorney works to evaluate both current and future losses.

Will my case have to go before a jury?

Many car accident cases are resolved without a jury, but some require litigation. Grant Law Office prepares every case thoroughly, so it is ready to be presented to a jury if needed.

How much does it cost to speak with Grant Law Office?

Grant Law Office offers free consultations. This allows you to ask questions, learn about your options, and decide how to move forward without financial pressure.

What sets Grant Law Office apart from other Georgia car accident firms?
