One person was seriously injured and a driver was charged after a two-vehicle wreck Tuesday morning on Ga 365 near Lula.
The Georgia State Patrol said their investigation revealed that a Kenworth tractor-trailer, driven by Tammy Coffee, 57, of Cornelia, was traveling northbound on Ga 365 and attempting to turn left into AmeriCold Cold Storage north of Whitehall Road. A Pontiac G6 sedan driven by Breanna Eldridge, 26, of Cleveland was traveling southbound on 365 in the right lane.
GSP said Coffee failed to yield while turning left and entered the path of the Pontiac, which struck the passenger side of the trailer attached to the Kenworth. The Pontiac then traveled slightly under the trailer, entrapping Eldridge in her vehicle.
Hall County EMS arrived on scene and used extraction equipment to remove Eldridge from her vehicle. She was transported to a local hospital with serious injuries.
There were no complaints of injury from Coffee, who was charged with failure to yield while turning left.
Further investigation into the vehicle speed of the Pontiac is pending. All travel lanes were open and cleared from the wreckage by 7:15 a.m. Tuesday.
