I am eastbound, mile 27.4 and I found all the traffic.
00:05
Just past 400 over by the Shambly exit.
00:08
Finally somebody wrecked their car out.
00:13
There's an accident on C85 south, so it's got everything all jacked up everywhere.
00:23
We're talking about the family Dunwoody, Ashford-Dunwoody area,
00:30
285 East.
00:38
That'd be the one. I'm just west of the Shambly exit, or not Shambly, but I just missed the sign. I don't remember what it said.
00:52
But yeah, I'm just east or west of about maybe a mile and a half from the Shambly exit.
01:05
They had that totally closed down.
01:08
And they just reopened it maybe 10 minutes ago.
01:13
So,
01:14
yeah, that's going to be bad.
01:39
So it's mass.
01:55
Roger, yeah, the exit 30,
02:00
which a little spider that jumps you into PIB. Do you think it's worth it or stay on 285? Right now my GPS says 858 if I stay on 285.
02:15
definitely get off.
02:19
There was about five miles of cars that were all released at once.
02:26
And yeah, I didn't know if you were in there, but yeah, I was kind of talking about that earlier.
02:34
I knew there was somebody in here that came around that way.
02:37
But yeah, I'd get off.
02:39
And even if you get off it like Ashford Dunwoody,
02:43
and going to Shamley, straight in, if I think you work in Shambly,
02:48
so I'd go.
02:58
I turn and see what happens if I make this turn and see what my GPS is. Or if I'll just double back.
