A Bowman driver was killed in a single-car wreck in Elbert County Tuesday morning.
The crash occurred around 11:16 a.m. on GA 172 near King Hall Mill Road, the state patrol says. Troopers identified the deceased driver as 58-year-old Bobby Lynn Maxwell.
The crash investigation revealed Maxwell was driving a Honda Accord north on Hwy. 172. The car ran off the east shoulder of the highway and struck two road signs before traveling down an embankment and overturning.
Maxwell was pronounced dead at the scene. His death follows a tragic weekend on Georgia’s roads. At least 20 people died in traffic accidents across the state over the long Labor Day weekend.
