What if a family member was killed in an accident with a government vehicle?

If a government-owned vehicle—including a city bus, county ambulance, state patrol car, school bus, or GDOT truck—caused a fatal accident due to driver negligence, the government entity may be liable for wrongful death. Georgia has waived sovereign immunity for many government vehicle accidents, particularly under O.C.G.A. § 36-92-2 (counties) and the GTCA (state agencies). These cases require swift investigation to preserve evidence including dashcam footage, dispatch records, driver history, and maintenance logs. Call HBLG at (844) HAUG-LAW immediately.
