A 17-year-old driver was seriously injured Monday morning after a crash in Gainesville.
The Georgia State Patrol said troopers responded to reports of a crash on Candler Road and State Route 60 at approximately 6:45 a.m.
A preliminary investigation revealed the teen was driving a 2003 Honda CRV north on Candler Road. The teen reportedly failed to maintain the lane and began to travel north in the southbound lane.
The teen’s car collided head-on with a stopped 2011 Chevrolet Silverado, driven by Kevin Sinder, 32, of Dawsonville.
The impact sent Sinder's vehicle into the front of a 2003 Chevrolet C15 occupied by Nashaidra Frame, 27, a 3-year-old, and an 8-year-old from Snellville.
Frame’s car was then pushed into the front of a 2023 Kia Seltos driven by Christopher Biggers, 33, of Dahlonega.
The teen driver was taken to a local hospital with suspected serious injuries.
Sinder was not transported but complained of possible injury.
