Capital Cir SW and Crash Trends in Tallahassee
Capital Cir SW is one of the busiest roadways encircling Tallahassee and plays a major role in regional traffic flow. Its heavy use, especially during early morning hours by commercial and commuter vehicles, makes it a high-risk area for accidents.
Leon County has recorded a steady number of injury crashes along Capital Cir over the past few years. State transportation data highlights that many of these accidents occur outside of peak rush hours, often involving speed, visibility issues, or driver fatigue. Given its function as a key arterial route, disruptions on Capital Cir can also affect broader traffic conditions across the Tallahassee area.
