Atlanta, GA - Multi-Vehicle Collision with Injuries on Abernathy Rd near Dunwoody Rd

Atlanta, GA (August 20, 2025) – A multi-vehicle crash on GA-400 northbound in Sandy Springs sent several people to the hospital and caused major traffic delays on Wednesday morning.

The collision occurred shortly after 6 a.m. near the North Springs MARTA Station, just past Abernathy Road and Dunwoody Road. Authorities reported that six to seven vehicles were involved in the chain-reaction crash. At least two to three individuals were transported to the hospital, including one person who sustained a broken leg.

All lanes on GA-400 were initially shut down as emergency crews responded. By 7:30 a.m., three northbound lanes had reopened, though one of the vehicles involved remained at the scene.

The incident is still under investigation, and further updates are expected. Our thoughts are with those affected by this accident.

Georgia Car Crashes

Atlanta, GA - Multi-Vehicle Collision with Injuries on Abernathy Rd near Dunwoody RdEvery day in Georgia, lives are disrupted by serious car accidents. From Atlanta’s crowded interstates to the quiet two-lane roads that stretch across rural counties, collisions continue to leave a lasting impact—bringing pain, stress, and financial hardship to countless families.

The Georgia Department of Transportation reports that hundreds of thousands of crashes take place statewide each year. Many of these wrecks cause injuries that range from mild to catastrophic. Whether it’s a high-speed highway crash, a sideswipe on a busy commuter route, or a collision at a neighborhood intersection, the aftermath often leaves victims with the same struggles: physical injuries, emotional turmoil, and uncertainty about how to move forward.

Some of the most frequent causes behind Georgia’s injury accidents include:

  • Distracted Driving – Texting, eating, or adjusting a device behind the wheel can cause drivers to miss critical moments on the road.
  • Speeding – Excessive speed cuts down reaction time and increases the severity of a collision.
  • Driving Under the Influence – Alcohol and drugs continue to contribute to preventable accidents across the state.
  • Reckless Driving – Tailgating, running red lights, and unsafe lane changes create dangerous situations for everyone nearby.
  • Drowsy Driving – Fatigue often goes unrecognized, yet it can impair judgment and slow reaction times just as much as alcohol.

The injuries from these crashes can be life-changing, from broken bones and head trauma to spinal cord injuries and lasting emotional scars. Recovery is often long and difficult—and medical expenses, lost wages, and insurance disputes only add to the challenges.
