Highway 365 near the Habersham/Hall County line is back open to traffic.
Earlier this afternoon, law enforcement shut down all lanes after an accident involving an overturned vehicle. The accident happened around 4 p.m. just south of Tribble Gap Road near Jaemor Farms.
Cpl. Joshua Hedden with the Georgia State Patrol says 85-year-old Roderick McDonald of Winder was traveling west on Jaemor Farm Road in a Lincoln Mark LT. He attempted to cross over the northbound lanes of the highway and pulled into the path of a 1999 Toyota Camry driven by 52-year-old Robin Wise of Cornelia.
Hedden says the Camry struck the Lincoln in the left side. After impact, the Lincoln overturned onto the driver’s side.
McDonald and a passenger in his truck, 82-year-old Hatha Rae McDonald also of Winder, both suffered minor injuries. Wise also sustained minor injuries.
Roderick McDonald was cited for failure to yield.
