Are there any laws that prohibit driving while texting in Georgia?

 

A: Yes, there are texting laws in Georgia that may impact the outcome of your case if you were injured in an accident in Georgia around Lithia Springs. An accident lawyer can help explain your rights and what legal options may be available for you.

In the state of Georgia, no one is allowed to text while driving. This statewide ban on texting while driving not only makes it illegal, but also could affect the direction of your claim.

When someone else acts in a careless or reckless manner, such as texting while behind the wheel, they can be held liable for the injuries you sustained. You may face mounting medical bills, no income as a result of not working and other damages. These can be addressed through a claim. 

There are ways to prove that someone was texting while driving. You or a passenger, even another driver, may be able to provide testimony indicating so. The phone can also be looked at to determine if there were text messages sent and/or received during the time of the accident. It is important you get strong legal representation to help in a case like this.

Negligent driving of any matter is serious and can lead to severe, potentially life-threatening injuries. When you have been the victim of distracted driving or any other type of negligence in an accident in Georgia, then you should seek legal help.
