After a serious collision, the first question is not simply who received a citation. The larger question is what evidence will show what happened and what the collision changed. That can mean identifying witnesses, preserving photographs and video, locating vehicle data, documenting the scene, and making sure medical care accurately reflects the symptoms and limitations being experienced.
Georgia generally provides two years to bring a personal-injury action, but that does not mean an investigation should wait. Video can be overwritten, vehicles can be repaired, and memories can fade. Claims involving a government entity or unusual facts may also involve different notice requirements or deadlines.
A disciplined approach builds the record early, separates assumption from proof, and evaluates both responsibility and damages before an insurance company defines the claim.
