Atlanta, GA (May 1, 2025) – A rear-end collision occurred earlier today on I-20 West in Atlanta, Georgia, causing significant traffic backups. The incident took place around 7:15 a.m., involving a gray Nissan Altima and a white Ford F-150.
Reports indicate that the driver of the Nissan Altima was traveling westbound on I-20 when the vehicle collided with the rear of the Ford F-150, which had slowed down due to a traffic light ahead. The force of the crash caused the Nissan Altima to sustain considerable damage to the front end, while the Ford F-150 suffered only minor rear-end damage.
The driver of the Nissan Altima, a 30-year-old woman, sustained injuries to her neck and back and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment. The driver of the Ford F-150, a 50-year-old man, was uninjured but evaluated at the scene by emergency responders.
The Georgia State Patrol is investigating the cause of the crash, and preliminary reports suggest that the driver of the Nissan Altima may have been distracted or following too closely, which contributed to the rear-end collision. Traffic on I-20 West was delayed for over 30 minutes as emergency crews cleared the wreckage and worked to restore normal traffic flow.
We extend our thoughts to the injured driver and wish them a full and speedy recovery.
