Four Vehicle Tractor-Trailer Wreck Injures Two Near Savannah, Georgia
A trucker was cited for following too close after a 4 vehicle wreck in Effingham County, Georgia on September 14, 2008. The truck driver was following a Ford F-250 on Georgia Highway 17, when the Ford slowed to make a turn. The big rig struck the rear of the Ford, and then swerved into the oncoming lane, before hitting a mail truck head-on. The tractor-trailer then overturned on the highway.
A Ford Expedition following the rig swerved to avoid the wreck and ended up in the ditch, leaving its driver uninjured. Emergency medical services transported the driver of the Postal Service truck to a Savannah hospital. The trucker reportedly also was injured, but refused medical treatment at the scene.
