Pedestrian Accidents in Georgia
Pedestrians are known for being some of the most vulnerable parties on our roads. This is due to the fact that they have no protection from harm when involved in an accident with a passenger vehicle. Pedestrians are likely to become either seriously injured or killed in accidents every year in Georgia.
In 2018, it was reported that approximately 260 pedestrians were killed in these horrific accidents due to the recklessness of others. Losing a loved one in a pedestrian accident is never easy for a family to face. If you have suffered from these enormous losses, you should have the help of an attorney on your side.
Nobody is ever fully prepared to face the loss of a loved one in a pedestrian accident. If you have sustained these immense losses, you may wonder where you can turn. Pedestrian accidents happen due to many different reasons, including the following:
- Distracted driving
- Drunk driving
- Speeding
- Fatigued driving
If you have lost someone close to you in a pedestrian accident, you may be feeling alone and confused. As you are grieving the loss of a loved one, you may wonder how you will afford to pay the bills that pile up against you.
