Live in Atlanta or planning a visit? Find out the most important traffic rules, legal tinting regulations, tips for a seasonal tire changeover, and much more! This section has been specially created by our Atlanta experts and will definitely help you to save some time and cash!

Live traffic report

“The City of the forest” is plagued by gridlock and traffic congestion. Just take a look at those rush hour timings. In the morning, it starts to get busy and jammed up as early as 4 a.m., and often stays so up until 10 a.m., peaking around 7 a.m. or so. It starts to be busy again from around 3 p.m. onwards up until 7:30 in the evening, you can pm. expect the worst traffic from 3:30 p.m. to at late as 7:30 p.m.

The reasons cited are many, with the inefficiently planned public transportation system and Atlantan’s love for their cars often topping the list. Whatever the reasons, it’s good to be aware of the highly probable traffic congestion, and always check the live traffic conditions before going anywhere.

Seasonal tire changeover

As tire pros, we advocate for summer tires, optimal for the hot season in the city. This rubber provides the optimal driving performance on the heated, or wet road surface, which often has an incline to it, remember the hilly Atlanta landscape?
The hot season starts by the last week of May and lasts for nearly 4 months into mid-September, with an average daily temperature above 80 °F. July is the hottest month, with temperatures averaging between 88 °F and 71 °F. To feel secure and comfortable on Atlanta roads during that time, go to the summer or performance tires section of our website. Choose new or used tires in perfect condition and get them delivered for free right to your Atlanta home or office!

Driving Laws

  1. No cell phone use apart from hands-free., This applies to texting, messaging, etc.
  2. Highway maintenance vehicles and workers have the right of the way in the construction areas
  3. See a school bus with flashing yellow lights? Slow down and be prepared to stop, as soon as lights turn and stop signs pop out from the side of the bus
  4. On the emergency or police vehicle approach, slow down and move to the right shoulder of the road, or to the right-hand lane if you can
  5. Even if you have the right-of-way, but the other driver is taking your turn, you should let him proceed, so an accident can be averted
  6. Taking a left turn at an intersection? Yield the right-of-way to all traffic that is coming from the opposite direction

Window tint laws

In Atlanta, as in the rest of Georgia, car window tint darkness for sedans, SUVs, and vans alike are set as follows:

  • Non-reflective tint is legal on the top 6 inches of the windshield
  • Front side window tint is set at 32% VLT or higher
  • Backside windows tint is set at 32% VLT or higher
  • The rear window tint limit is set at 32% VLT or higher
  • The tint reflection for both front and backside windows should not exceed 20%

Other important Atlanta tinting rules to consider:

  • Restricted tint colors in Atlanta are red and amber
  • All tinting film must be certified, but there’s no need for stickers to identify the legal tint
  • There are medical exemptions for special tint in Atlanta
  • Fines for tinting laws violation in Atlanta are steep, up to $1,000

Roads and highways

Major interstates

There are three major interstates leading to Atlanta, namely I-20, I-75, and I-85. It is also served by Georgia 400 highway, and Interstate 285. I-285 is a 63.98 miles long loop encircling Atlanta. The Perimeter, as locals call it, is used by over two million people daily. It is one of the busiest roadways in the U.S., so packed during the rush hours, that traffic often slows down to a crawl. Thankfully, even though there are no tollways proper in Atlanta, there are some Express Lanes, that help to somehow ease the congestion, and make commuting in the Atlanta metropolitan area easier.
The toll can be paid by Peachpass, Florida SunPass, and the North Carolina Quick Pass.
  • The Northwest Corridor Express Lanes run along Interstates 75 and 575 in the northwestern suburbs of the Atlanta metropolitan area.
  • The South Metro Express Lanes are reversible toll lanes along the I-75 and I-675 in the southern suburbs of the Atlanta metropolitan area. The traffic direction alternates between northbound in the morning and southbound in the evening and adds capacity to the main lanes.
Get more details on the Peach Pass, the toll cost, and how to use the Express Lanes in Atlanta at the Official Peach Pass website.

FAQ

Where to buy tires in Atlanta?

Here at Utires.com, we have over 60,000 new and used tires in stock. Choose the best tire for your Atlanta ride and get free FedEx shipping right to the door of your home or office!

Can I use summer tires all year in Atlanta?

Summer tires are perfect for the hot season in Atlanta, from the end of May and into mid-September. For safe driving during the cold season here is better to use all-season tires.

Are winter tires legal in Atlanta?

Yes, winter tires are legal in Atlanta, but most people here tend to use all-season tires during the cold season here.

Are studded tires legal in Atlanta?

Yes, they are, but only when the road conditions require them, and that is a rare and very short-duration situation in Atlanta, so to use them you’d have to put them on for a day or two, and take them off immediately when the “limited access due to inclement weather” warning is off. Atlantans trust their all-season tires to do the job.
