Atlanta, GA - Two-Driver Collision on I-85 at Jimmy Carter Blvd Leads to Injuries

Atlanta, GA (November 18, 2022) – On November 18, three automobiles crashed in Atlanta, leaving at least two people injured.

The incident happened just north of the Jimmy Carter Boulevard exit on southbound I-85 about 4:20 p.m., according to the Atlanta Police Department (APD).

Although two casualties were reported by the initial responding fire and EMS units, their present condition is unclear at this time.

The closed exit ramp and backed-up right lanes caused a traffic delay that lasted more than an hour. No other information on the cause of the event has been made available at this time, however.

The injured victims and their loved ones are in our thoughts at this time.

Due to the various dangers on our roads and the recklessness of many drivers, such as texting while driving and driving under the influence, at least 122,000 people were injured and 1,100 people were killed in these incidents. Those who are engaged in vehicle accidents should set aside a considerable amount to cover any legal expenses and medical expenditures that may emerge from the occurrence.
