Georgia Train Accidents

The most common types of train accidents are collisions with other trains, collisions with passenger vehicles, and single train accidents. These types of accidents may be caused by improperly maintained tracks, derailment, mechanical failure, or automobile driver inexperience.

Absent or inadequate warnings at railroad crossings can also contribute to collisions. According to the Federal Railroad Administration, more than half of all railroad accidents occur at unprotected crossings and over 80 % of railroad crossings do not have adequate warning devices.
