contents In \cite{Oh22}, the second author defined a complex of groups decomposition of the fundamental group of a finitely generated 2-dimensional special group, called an \emph{intersection complex}, which is a quasi-isometry invariant. In this paper, using the theory of intersection complexes, we classify the class of 2-braid groups over graphs with circumference $\leq 1$ up to quasi-isometry. Moreover, we find a sufficient condition when such a graph 2-braid group is quasi-isometric to a right-angled Artin group or not. Finally, by applying the same method, we also find that there is an algorithm to determine whether two 4-braid groups over trees are quasi-isometric or not.
