Terrell Co., GA (June 26, 2025) – Authorities are investigating a serious two-vehicle collision that occurred Wednesday afternoon, June 25, on Georgia State Route 520 near mile marker 18, just outside the town of Sasser.
The crash took place around 2:35 p.m., according to preliminary information from Georgia State Patrol Post 10 in Americus. The vehicles involved were a 2019 Nissan Sentra and a 2014 Toyota Camry.
Emergency personnel responded swiftly to the scene. One individual sustained serious injuries and was airlifted to Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital. The second person was also transported to Phoebe Putney for treatment of injuries reported as non-life-threatening.
The collision caused significant traffic delays, with eastbound lanes of GA 520 closed for an extended period while crews worked to clear the roadway and investigators gathered evidence.
The Georgia State Patrol continues to examine the circumstances surrounding the incident. Further details may be released as the investigation progresses.

Georgia Car Accidents
Across Georgia, car accidents remain a leading cause of serious injuries, with thousands of collisions occurring each year on highways and city streets alike. From I-75 and I-285 in Atlanta to rural routes and coastal corridors, drivers face real risks every time they get behind the wheel.
According to recent state data, more than 1,700 lives are lost in Georgia traffic crashes each year, and tens of thousands more suffer injuries that can permanently impact their quality of life. Many of these incidents are tied to dangerous driving behaviors that continue to plague our roads—speeding, distracted driving, running red lights, and impaired driving are all major contributors.
When you’re injured in a crash, the consequences can be overwhelming—physically, emotionally, and financially. Some of the most common injuries reported after Georgia car accidents include:
- Whiplash and Soft Tissue Damage – Often underestimated, these injuries can lead to chronic pain and mobility issues.
- Head and Brain Injuries – Even a seemingly minor blow to the head can cause a concussion or more severe traumatic brain injury, with long-term effects on memory and mood.
- Spinal Injuries – Damage to the spinal cord can result in partial or total loss of sensation or function, requiring ongoing care and support.
- Fractures and Dislocations – Broken bones may require surgery and months of rehabilitation.
- Internal Injuries – Trauma to internal organs or internal bleeding isn’t always immediately visible, but can be life-threatening if untreated.
- Psychological Impact – Anxiety, PTSD, and emotional distress are common after serious accidents and should not be ignored.
