Atlanta Reckless Driving Accident Lawyer In GA

What Is Reckless Driving?

Reckless driving is defined as driving in a way that shows a deliberate or intentional disregard for the safety of others or their property. It is considered a crime and is punishable by jail time and costly fines. Here are some of the most common forms of reckless driving:

Drag Racing

In most states, drag racing is a misdemeanor. Because drag racing is intentional and illegal, it can also be considered grossly negligent.

Weaving In And Out Of Traffic

Drivers who swerve in and out of lanes, often cutting off drivers in their way, can easily run into unexpected obstacles. These obstacles could include an unsuspecting person opening their car door, pedestrians crossing the street, or someone  simply decided to change lanes.

Fleeing Law Enforcement

When drivers are on the run, they tend to ignore others around them and will even bulldoze through other cars in order to escape.

Speeding

When speeding, drivers can easily, both intentionally or accidentally, fly through red lights, fail to yield, or crash into left-turning vehicles. Crashes that occur at high speeds are by nature more deadly.
