Driving on highways poses additional risk to motorists and passengers. Motor vehicle collisions on Athens highways often occur at high speeds, which can increase the risk of serious injuries occurring. In addition, with so many cars traveling so close to each other, drivers often have no time or space to react. Even if a driver is able to see a problem up ahead, their proximity to so many other vehicles might not give them the space to avoid it. For instance, if a motorist notices that the car in front of them has suddenly stopped, they might not be able to avoid hitting it if there is heavy traffic around them that prevents them from changing lanes. In addition, when a driver hits a car while on a highway, there is a possibility that the accident could turn into a multi-car accident if the driver behind them hits them.
Our attorneys at the Massey Law Group understand how devastating highway collisions can be. We will work closely with you to understand the full impact the accident has had on your physical, emotional, and cognitive health. We will negotiate for a full settlement that would cover all your losses and would make a difference in your recovery and overall quality of health. If the at-fault driver’s insurance company is unwilling to negotiate, we promise not to undersell the value of your case. We will aggressively fight for you in court.
When you drive on a highway, you’re likely to run into situations that are different from other roadways. Because you’re often traveling at such high speeds on highways, the result can be catastrophic. Some of the situations regularly occurring on highways and not on other roads that can lead to accidents include:
Combining those factors with other common causes of accidents, such as distracted driving, drunk driving, inexperience, recklessness, and aggressive driving, can increase the likelihood and severity of accidents occurring on Athens highways.
Our dedicated attorneys can investigate the cause of your highway collision to help you seek damages from the responsible party.
