Three people have been hospitalized after a Friday night crash near the intersection of Highway 316 and Winder Highway -- an accident which police say was caused by a wrong way driver.

According to an emailed statement from Gwinnett County Police, the head on collision occurred at approximately 10:30 p.m. The wrong way driver is believed to have been driving under the influence. Several calls were placed to the 911 center reporting a wrong way driver in the minutes immediately preceding the crash, police added.

This touches one of the problems with a Fri pick up schedule. Folks who take weekend trips are…Read More caught with either leaving the cans out or missing out by not putting their trash out. Since homeowners have zero choices under our government mandated trash plan to pay in advance for service without the ability to change carriers with different pick up dates, leaving the cans out is the results. IF the new city can change our pickup day to Mon or Tue this problem would be stopped or reduced

This is one of those "government mandated" services that actually are worth while. Imagine…Read More 5 different garbage collectors going around PC every week stopping at every 5th home.
