Tucker, GA (May 7, 2025) – A car fire caused significant traffic delays earlier today on I-285 South near Chamblee Tucker Road in Tucker, GA. The incident occurred just before 8:35 a.m., when the car fire blocked both the right lane of the southbound side of the highway and the left lane of the entrance ramp.

However, delays continued as the backup extended all the way to Ashford Dunwoody Road, causing significant congestion for commuters.
