Evidence in Georgia DUI Accident Cases

Is Evidence of DUI Admissible and Relevant in Georgia DUI Accidents?

Yes. Persons injured in a DUI accident in Georgia may recover compensation for physical and emotional trauma and for past and future medical bills and other damages such as lost pay. The insurance company for the at-fault driver may argue that evidence of DUI should be inadmissible in court for one reason or another, out of the insurer’s fear that the Jury will be less sympathetic to the at-fault driver and be more willing to award all of your damages.

An experienced Georgia personal injury lawyer can help fight such tactics through the lawyers’ knowledge of and experience with Georgia’s rules of evidence, to make sure that your evidence of impaired driving will be admissible in Court. There several reasons that evidence of impaired driving should be admissible in court, including the drunk-driver’s memory of what happened at and before the crash, how fast he or she was going, how hard the impact was, and whether anyone else may be or should be held responsible for causing the collision.
