Atlanta, GA (April 30, 2025) – A collision on I-85 South in Atlanta, Georgia, led to significant traffic delays earlier this morning. The crash occurred around 6:45 a.m., involving a white Toyota Camry and a silver Honda Civic.
Reports indicate that the Toyota Camry, traveling southbound on I-85, was attempting to change lanes when it struck the side of the Honda Civic. The impact caused the Honda Civic to lose control and spin, coming to a stop in the middle of the highway. The Toyota Camry, meanwhile, veered into the shoulder of the highway, hitting a guardrail.
The driver of the Honda Civic, a 28-year-old man, sustained moderate injuries to his neck and back and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment. The driver of the Toyota Camry, a 42-year-old woman, was unharmed but was evaluated at the scene.
The Georgia State Patrol is investigating the cause of the crash. Preliminary reports suggest that the driver of the Toyota Camry may not have checked her blind spot properly before changing lanes, which contributed to the collision. The accident caused traffic on I-85 South to slow down for over an hour while emergency responders cleared the wreckage and restored normal traffic flow.
We extend our thoughts to the injured driver and wish them a full and speedy recovery.
