Update, March 5: A 24-year-old Dahlonega man died in the wreck, according to the Georgia State Patrol.

Matthew Novotny was driving south on Thompson Bridge Road/Ga. 60, north of Tomacheche Trail, when he “failed to maintain his lane” and the vehicle’s right wheels traveled onto the road’s west shoulder, according to the state patrol in an email Thursday, March 5.

Novotny overcorrected his vehicle, causing the vehicle to rotate counterclockwise as it traveled back onto Ga. 60 and into the northbound lane.

A tractor-trailer truck owned by Fieldale Farms traveling north on Ga. 60 struck Novotny’s Dodge Shadow on the right side of the car, according to the state patrol.

After impact, both vehicles went off the road and traveled down an embankment on the west side of Ga. 60. Novotny’s vehicle then struck a tree with its left side and, along with the truck, came to a final rest, state patrol said.

The truck driver, Alan Garcia, 36, of Murrayville was uninjured, according to the state patrol.

The wreck was reported at 11:48 a.m. Wednesday, March 4.

No charges will be filed, state patrol said.
