A two-vehicle accident on GA 365 in Hall County on Wednesday left both drivers with serious injuries, according to the Georgia State Patrol (GSP).
The crash occurred at approximately 5:07 p.m. at the intersection of GA 365/Cornelia Highway and Whitehall Road.
According to GSP, a 2012 Silverado, driven by 26-year-old Tiana Wheeler of Commerce, was traveling south in the left turn lane on GA 365 and attempted to turn left onto Whitehall Road. Pedro Martinez, 56, drove a 2003 Volvo tractor-trailer north in the right lane on SR 365. Turning left, the Silverado failed to yield and was struck on the right by the tractor-trailer, troopers say.
Wheeler and Martinez were transported with serious injuries.
The northbound lanes of State Route 365 were closed for approximately an hour and a half for the investigation and subsequent crash cleanup. Charges are pending.
