An 83-year-old female driver mistook the gas pedal for the brake right before this crash in Fort Oglethorpe, GA. Incredibly, there were no fatalities.

Georgia State Patrol stated they obtained arrest warrants on Thursday for the driver that caused a major crash on Dietz Road and Battlefield Parkway.

The 83-year-old woman, whose identity has not been released, is charged with the following:
Serious injury by vehicle.
Reckless driving.
Speeding 95 mph in a 35 mph zone.
Following too closely.

GSP says there is no update on the conditions of the two people that remain hospitalized.

GSP investigators said the driver of a Ford Explorer was an 83-year-old woman from Ringgold, who mistook the gas pedal for the brake pedal prior to the crash.

Her vehicle then hit a white Kia Forte, a white GMC Sierra and a brown Honda CR-V, which were all stopped at the traffic light on Dietz Road.

The impact caused the GMC Sierra to hit a gray Honda Civic and pink Lexus IS300, while the Ford Explorer began to flip over.

The crash happened at 2:00pm on January 14.

The Ford Explorer then hit the roof of the Lexus IS300 before coming to a rest in the right westbound lane of Battlefield Parkway.

A white Kia Sorento that was driving westbound on Battlefield Parkway was hit by debris as well.

The driver of the Ford Explorer has charges pending, GSP said.

The LAST time we are sending grandma to the liquor store after she has been drinking, smoking crack, and listening to heavy metal music.


Next time we'll send 8 year old Cletus. He's young, but his reactions are like a cat's!

lucky the pickup loaded with wheels soaked up most of the energy. At that speed if a small car was hit first it would crumple and maybe burn
