Fulton County accident report stated that on May 3, 2024 Driver 1 was on Sherwood Rd waiting to turn right onto Piedmont Avenue.  He stated that he thought the vehicle in front of him had proceeded forward after yielding to the traffic when he looked left and began to move forward, but Vehicle 2 had not pulled forward and he struck Vehicle 2 in the rear.  Driver 2 confirmed that she was struck from the rear while yielding to the traffic.  Driver 2 complained of head and neck pain, but refused medical treatment. No other complaints.  Driver 1 was cited for following too closely.  Note: If you strike the rear, you are always too close and at fault.
