Aggressive Driving Accident Attorney In Alpharetta
Aggressive driving happens frequently in Georgia when drivers go beyond mere negligence. They are intentionally driving in a reckless and dangerous way, purposely putting other people at risk. It is true that Georgia has laws prohibiting excessively slow driving, as drivers should stay to the right unless they are passing and they should never drive slowly on purpose so that they impede traffic. But just because the driver is going slower than another does not excuse aggressive driving, road rage, tailgating and things of this nature.

Aggressive Driving Laws In Georgia
According to Georgia law, someone is driving aggressively if they intend “to annoy, harass, molest, intimidate, injure, or obstruct another person.” It’s also likely that an aggressive driver is speeding, which is itself a violation of state law.
Proving Negligence After A Crash With An Aggressive Driver
There are many different types of evidence that can help to demonstrate negligence after an aggressive driving accident. You may want to consider dashcam footage from your vehicle or others, security camera footage from nearby buildings, the official police report that the officer makes at the scene and any witness statements from people who saw the accident. Crash reconstruction teams are also involved in some cases. For instance, if there are no skidmarks on the road, the team may determine that the other driver never even attempted to break because they were aggressively tailgating and did not have time.
