What Causes Automobile Accidents?
Unexpected accidents occur every day on Georgia roads.
Various factors can contribute to serious injuries in automobile accidents, including:
- Distracted driving: Common distractions include texting, eating, or adjusting the radio and other vehicle settings while operating the car.
- Speeding: Disregarding posted speed limits and other traffic regulations can increase the risk of automobile accidents and lead to severe injuries.
- Driving under the influence: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can create dangerous conditions for drivers and surrounding motorists by impairing the driver's judgment, coordination, and reaction times.
- Reckless driving: Driving aggressively also increases the risk of automobile accidents, such as tailgating, weaving through traffic, and failing to yield the right of way.
- Weather conditions: Rain, sleet, fog, ice, and other extreme weather can decrease visibility and lead to hazardous road conditions, potentially leading to automobile accidents.
- Vehicle defects: Design flaws, defective car parts, and inadequate maintenance can all contribute to car accidents on the road, opening the door to automobile accident lawsuits due to brake failures, tire blowouts, and other unexpected accidents.

Who Is Liable in a Georgia Car Accident?
Understanding common causes of automobile accidents is key to identifying liable parties and seeking fair compensation. In Georgia, liability in automobile accidents is determined by the concept of negligence. Negligence occurs when an offending party (defendant) fails to exercise reasonable care, leading to the accident and wrongful injury to the victim (plaintiff).
Various parties may be liable for damages caused by automobile accidents, such as:
- Other drivers on the road
- Vehicle manufacturers or designers
- Government entities responsible for road maintenance and design
- Employers, if the at-fault driver was operating a company vehicle at the time of the accident
With over a decade of experience, our firm is well-versed in the legal intricacies of automobile accident lawsuits to guide your steps carefully, negotiate effectively with other insurers and involved parties, and fight to recover full damages on your behalf.
Recoverable Damages in Automobile Accident Lawsuits
In personal injury lawsuits, damages refer to financial and non-financial losses suffered by victims of wrongful injuries. Depending on the unique circumstances of the accident, various damages may be recoverable in an automobile accident. These include:
- Economic damages: These are direct expenses incurred as a result of the accident, such as medical bills, lost wages, and property damage.
- Non-economic damages: These include intangible losses that affect the victim’s quality of life, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Punitive damages: In cases where the at-fault party’s actions were particularly reckless or malicious, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior in the future.
