College Park is a south Fulton County city bisected by I-85 and directly adjacent to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport — the world’s busiest. The combination of airport ground transportation, hotel shuttle traffic, and commercial logistics on Virginia Avenue, Old National Highway, and the I-85/I-285 interchange creates some of the highest crash concentrations in metro Atlanta. If you were hurt in a College Park accident, Georgia law gives you the right to full recovery — but the deadline is firm.
