The Georgia State Patrol says a Mt. Airy driver failed to yield while crossing over Ga. 365 near the Stephens County line. The pickup truck ran into the path of a northbound car.
Units from Habersham County Emergency Services, the Habersham County Sheriff’s Office, and Georgia State Patrol responded to the wreck around 5:28 p.m. on September 19.
According to the state patrol’s preliminary crash investigation, Timothy Greenless of Mt. Ariy was driving a RAM 3500 pickup east on Rock Road. Greenless failed to yield after stopping at the sign and ran into the path of an Acura MDX that was northbound on Ga. 365.
The Acura T-boned the pickup, injuring both people in the car. The driver, Michael Chumley, and a passenger, Nicola Howard, both of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, were taken to Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville for treatment.
The investigating trooper cited Greenless with failure to yield after stopping at a stop sign.
The wreck was reported while Habersham County Emergency Services and sheriff’s deputies were on the scene of another injury wreck on Ga. 365 at Alto-Mud Creek Road on the other end of the county.
