Georgia Jury Awards $2 Million to Georgia Truck Driver

ADVERTISEMENTS

Georgia injury lawyers often see automobile accidents involving tractor trailer trucks but it is more unusual to see collisions between semi trucks. Nonetheless, a DeKalb County, Georgia jury has awarded $2 million to a Georgia truck driver to compensate him for medical bills after his tractor-trailer was rear-ended on Interstate 285 by another 18-wheeler. The accident occurred in February of 2004. As the man was driving his 1995 International tractor-trailer on I-285 near the Covington Highway exit, he was rear-ended by a second tractor trailer truck, according to court documents. The man suffered injuries to his left eye, neck and lower back and later underwent back surgery because of a herniated disk. The driver of the other truck claimed that he was cut off by another driver.

If you have been in a Georgia automobile accident or truck accident, its important to make sure you understand your legal rights. You may be able to recover money for medical bills, lost wages, funeral costs, as well as compensation for wrongful death or permanent disability.
