Two people were killed during two related accidents on GA 23 about 4:30 a.m. Saturday morning, November 4, 2023. The first accident occurred near mile marker 12 (approximately 7 tenths of a mile north of the intersection with Stoney Hill Church Road) when a 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe headed north on 23 driven by Jalen Christopher Quarterman, 30-year-old male of Hinesville, GA, yawed over into the southbound lane before an apparent overcorrection, which caused the vehicle to spin clockwise onto the right shoulder of the northbound lane.
