A truck driver from Chicago is free on bond following his arrest on alcohol-related and other charges after his 18-wheeler overturned on Calvary Church Road Friday, closing the road for several hours. The state patrol released its report on the accident late Monday afternoon
STATE PATROL NARRATIVE:
“On Friday, April 11, 2025, at approximately 10:30 A.M., a Trooper from GSP-Gainesville responded to investigate a single-vehicle crash involving an overturned tractor-trailer on Calvary Church Road in the area of New Harvest Road. The investigation revealed an International Prostar driven by Taylor Sirpatrick, 34, of Chicago, Il, was traveling south on Calvary Church Road. While entering a curve, Mr. Sirpatrick was traveling too fast to negotiate the curve, failed to maintain his lane, and traveled off of the roadway. The load in the trailer shifted, causing the truck and trailer to roll over onto it’s passenger side. The tractor trailer came to an uncontrolled final rest on the west shoulder of Calvary Church Road…”
