In a tragic turn of events on the night of June 21st, Atlanta saw a fatal collision between a motorcycle and a Honda CR-V. The crash took place at the intersection of Greenbriar Parkway SW and Continental Colony Parkway SW, with emergency services responding to the distress call at approximately 11:08 PM.
The collision resulted in the death of a 36-year-old male motorcyclist at the scene, while a passenger from the motorcycle sustained life-threatening injuries and was immediately transported to a medical facility. The driver of the Honda, a 29-year-old woman, survived the crash with injuries that have since been described as stable by medical professionals.
Initial reports from the Atlanta Police suggest that the motorcycle was travelling at high speeds, moving southbound on Greenbriar Parkway and weaving between lanes. It was attempting to cross the intersection as the Honda was making a left-hand turn onto the same parkway, which led to the tragic encounter.
The Atlanta Police’s Accident Investigations Unit has taken charge of the detailed probing into the collision. While the investigation is ongoing with active measures being taken to determine the full set of circumstances around the incident, authorities have not yet disclosed the identities of the individuals involved.
As the meticulous work of the Accident Investigations Unit continues, updates will be provided about the conditions of the individuals who were critically injured.
