Atlanta, GA (May 7, 2025) – A rain-related crash on I-75/85 South just past I-20 caused significant traffic delays this morning. The incident occurred just before 7:00 a.m., when the wet road conditions contributed to a collision that blocked the center lane of the southbound side of the interstate.
Initial reports indicate that the crash involved two vehicles, although the exact cause remains under investigation. Emergency responders quickly arrived on the scene, and by mid-morning, the crash had been moved to the right shoulder, clearing the roadway for traffic. However, delays persisted as drivers navigated the aftermath, especially with the lingering rain making driving conditions more challenging.
The Georgia State Patrol and local traffic authorities are investigating the cause of the crash. Traffic backed up into Midtown Atlanta, and drivers were advised to expect delays for an extended period due to the continued effects of the incident and ongoing rain.
