Speeding Accidents: A Big Issue In Georgia
Speeding remains a persistent problem on our roads, significantly contributing to traffic fatalities in Georgia. According to the Georgia Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, over 25% of all traffic-related deaths are due to speeding, with 369 lives lost in 2021 alone. Despite a slight decrease from the previous year, the trend of speed-related fatalities has been on the rise. Speeding accidents not only devastates families but also places a heavy burden on our communities.
What Are The Risks Of Speeding?
Speeding does more than violate traffic laws; it poses serious risks that heighten the likelihood of car accidents. Here are the reasons:
- Speeding impairs a driver’s capability to navigate curves or avoid obstacles on the road.
- It increases the required stopping distance for a vehicle.
- Speeding prolongs the reaction distance when responding to emergencies.
- Higher speeds exacerbate the severity of injuries in crashes.
All drivers must recognize these dangers and do their part to prevent accidents on the road.
