The Georgia State Patrol has identified the motorcyclist injured in a wreck on GA 365 Sunday as Virginia Durand, 25, of Toccoa. According to troopers, Durand struck a Ford F250 pickup truck as it crossed the highway on Hazel Creek Road.
The accident happened around 1 p.m. Sunday, August 1.
Troopers say Durand was on a 2013 Harley Davidson stopped in the gore area off Hazel Creek Road when the pickup crossed the highway. She pulled out of the gore and proceeded south, striking the truck driven by 21-year-old Corey Powers of Demorest.
According to Habersham County Emergency Services Director Chad Black, Durand suffered apparent wrist and shoulder injuries. Habersham EMS transported her to Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville in stable condition.
Powers was not injured in the wreck.
The accident temporarily stalled traffic as drivers stopped on the highway to help. Photos from the scene show people calling 911 and helping Durand before law enforcement arrived.
The State Patrol says no charges are pending at this time.
