Wrong-Way Accidents Are Rare, Yet Extremely Dangerous
According to the U.S. Federal Highway Administration, wrong-way accidents take the lives of between 300 and 400 people in the United States each year—about one percent of all annual traffic deaths. Wrong-way accidents can occur in several ways, including when a driver goes the wrong way:
- On a divided highway.
- On a highway ramp or other access ramp.
- On a one-way surface street.
Drivers may also cross over a median and collide with another vehicle, although these accidents are not generally included in wrong way statistics. Wrong-way collisions may constitute only a small percentage of all fatal accidents, but the injuries suffered by the survivors of these accidents are often severe because they generally result in head-on accidents.

Statute of Limitations on Georgia Traffic Accident Suits
Under O.C.G.A § 9-3-33, accident victims in Georgia have two years to decide whether or not to take your case to court. If a fair settlement with the insurance company is not possible, you will want to begin the process of filing a lawsuit as soon as possible. This two-year statute of limitations means you will need to file the paperwork for a personal injury lawsuit before the second anniversary of your accident in most cases.
If you miss this deadline, you could lose the opportunity to go to court and argue for a just payout in your case. It is important not to miss this deadline, because it could jeopardize your rights.
Call our team as soon as you can to discuss your Fulton County wrong way car accident. We need time to investigate your accident, document the cause, prove negligence and liability, and file your insurance claim. Only then can we try to negotiate a fair settlement and determine if a lawsuit could become necessary.
