A 43-year-old Cumming woman is dead after a collision last night with a semitruck in Forsyth County.
The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office and Fire Department responded to the area of Georgia Highway 20 at the entrance of the Lakeland Plaza shopping center regarding a vehicle versus a semitruck collision that had occurred at about 9:30 p.m.
A 2011 Hyundai Sonata driven by 43-year-old Alison Flowers, of Cumming, was traveling westbound and entered the left-hand turn lane. At the same time a Freightliner semi-truck was traveling east bound in the right-hand straight lane on Ga. Highway 20 entering the Lakeland Plaza intersection on a green light.
“The Sonata failed to yield to the semi-truck and turned in front of it,” Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Stacie Miller said.
