Atlanta, GA (April 28, 2025) – Shortly before 6:00 p.m. on April 28, a traffic accident occurred in Atlanta that resulted in injuries and delays. Reports from local sources show the wreck took place on Peachtree Street at the intersection with 25th Street.
Paramedics worked to help injured victims and transport them to the hospital as needed. Currently, the identities of those involved in the accident have not been reported as police continue to investigate the circumstances of the incident. Multiple lanes were blocked while responders worked in the area, creating traffic delays between Midtown and Buckhead. Police continue to investigate.
Our thoughts are with those involved. We hope for their full and rapid recovery.
Georgia Traffic Collisions
Georgia sees a staggering number of car accidents each year, with over 300,000 crashes reported annually. These collisions result in more than 150,000 injuries and thousands of tragic fatalities. Sadly, many of these accidents are entirely preventable, as they’re most often caused by negligent or reckless driving.
According to national data, driver error accounts for over 94% of all motor vehicle accidents. The most common causes of negligent driving in Georgia and across the U.S. include:
- Driving under the influence (DUI)
- Texting or using a phone while driving
- Driver fatigue
- Excessive speeding
For example, speeding alone was responsible for over 12,000 traffic deaths in a recent year, while distracted driving contributed to more than 400,000 crashes nationwide. These reckless actions can have devastating consequences — causing serious injuries, emotional trauma, and life-altering financial burdens.
