A metro Atlanta driver is raising safety concerns after an incident on Interstate 285 left his car with over $2,000 in damages.
The driver, Brian Briggs, said he couldn’t avoid hitting two cemented prongs on the highway.
Channel 2 investigative reporter Ashli Lincoln visited the scene on 285 where the incident occurred and found the two metal prongs sticking out of the highway.
Briggs described the encounter as an immediate impact.
“It was like immediate, pop pop. I heard and felt it,” Briggs said.
He said he knew instantly that the impact caused severe damage. The prongs were located along Interstate 285 westbound at Peachtree Industrial Boulevard.
“I’m disgusted at why they would leave something like this in the roadway,” he said.
