GeorgiaTornado Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 The BF just sent me an email.... said a big wreck at Nebo and 61 That's all I know of now Link to post Share on other sites
paulding89 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 It looked really bad...Life Flight was waiting at New GA Ballfield. I was heading toward Villa Rica and they were turning traffic away. All I could see was a big truck (18 wheeler) and some other vehicle in the ditch. I was sick at the thought since they were turning traffic around and at the sight of Life Flight. Link to post Share on other sites

kim5460 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 If anyone knows the description on the car... please post. All my family lives around there. Link to post Share on other sites
GeorgiaTornado Posted December 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I'm checking....I'll try to find out. White Rollback Wrecker...fairly new -vs- Green Transfer Truck. From an eye witness.... The Wrecker was headed toward Dallas and the Big Rig was headed toward Villa Rica....they hit head on. There was a car turning and the Green Big Rig hit the Wrecker. To my understanding.... nobody was killed. Since we dont' have a trauma center locally...they had to be life flighted. Link to post Share on other sites

GeorgiaTornado Posted December 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I just called the store on the corner.... I knew she would know. She said it looked like you was watching Monster Trucks or something.... the bf said you couldn't even tell it was a wrecker. Prayers for the drivers. Link to post Share on other sites

gamudrider Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Thoughts and prayers with this family. My husband drives a rollback just like this and I think about him everyday. It is scary as to how fast something like this could happen. Link to post Share on other sites
