@DecaturNature Unfortunately, the City of #Atlanta (and #GDOT) literally hide their collision data, and make it inaccessible to the public. Instead, they sell(?) the data to LexisNexis, who then sells the data to injury attorneys for, well, glorified ambulance chasing.

I've tried 311 requests, and even an Open Records request to #APD, and never heard anything back.

It's a really crummy situation, but par for the course in City gov't, unfortunately.
