Pedestrian Accidents in Georgia
Pedestrians are particularly vulnerable to harm on Georgia roads. Over 80 percent of pedestrians in traffic collisions sustain injuries, compared to just 15 percent of drivers – and, frequently, the injuries are much more severe for the pedestrian. Accidents can happen anywhere, but urban streets and rural roadways are among the top locations for pedestrian accidents.
Pedestrians are considered fellow travelers on the roads and have the right of way in most situations, even if they are not in a marked crosswalk. Common causes of pedestrian collisions include:
- Failure to yield;
- Poor lighting at twilight, nighttime or dawn;
- Drunk driving;
- Distracted driving.
