Atlanta summers bring more traffic, more visitors, and more distractions on the road, and that combination raises the odds of a crash.
Rear-end collisions are on the rise as everyone rushes between errands and vacations. Lane merges near construction zones get riskier when drivers are unfamiliar with detours. And pedestrian-heavy events, like the pop-up festivals, mean more foot traffic crossing busy intersections at unexpected times.
None of this means you need to stay off the road. It just means a little extra awareness goes a long way this time of year: leave more following distance, slow down through merge points, and watch for pedestrians stepping out between parked cars.
