Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyer Blog

There was a very interesting article in the Atlanta Journal and Constitution on September 3, 2010 that concluded Atlanta drivers are amount the "least safe" in America. This study found that the average driver in Atlanta will be involved in a car wreck every 8.2 years. The study was commissioned by Allstate Insurance and ranked Atlanta as number 146th on the safest driving cities. This means that there are 145 cities that are safer to drive in than Atlanta.

Attorney Richard Griffin of The Griffin Law Firm, P.C. is not surprised by this study. He stated, "As a personal injury law firm based in and around Atlanta, we receive calls on a daily bases from people who are injured in car wrecks, truck accidents, bicycle accidents, motorcycle accidents, and other personal injury accidents." Clearly the roads and highways in Atlanta have heavy traffic. The commutes (driving to and from work) are often long since people who work in Atlanta may live an hour away from Atlanta.
