Atlanta, GA (April 22, 2025) – A rear-end collision occurred earlier today at the intersection of Piedmont Road and I-85 in Atlanta, Georgia, injuring one driver. The crash, which took place around 5:30 p.m., involved a white Honda Civic and a black Chevrolet Silverado.
Initial reports indicate that the Honda Civic was stopped at the red light when the driver of the Chevrolet Silverado failed to stop in time, colliding with the rear of the Honda Civic. The force of the impact pushed the Honda Civic into the intersection, damaging the front end of the vehicle as well. The driver of the Honda Civic, a 41-year-old woman, was transported to a nearby hospital with neck and back injuries. The driver of the Chevrolet Silverado, a 50-year-old man, was uninjured.
The Atlanta Police Department is investigating the cause of the crash. Early reports suggest that the driver of the Chevrolet Silverado may have been distracted or following too closely behind the Honda Civic. Traffic was delayed for approximately 30 minutes while authorities cleared the wreckage and restored normal traffic flow.
We extend our thoughts to the injured driver and wish them a full and speedy recovery.
