An SUV was traveling southbound in the northbound lanes of I-75 for an unknown amount of time. A truck swerved to avoid the SUV, but the SUV also swerved in the same direction, causing a head-on collision.
A man and a woman in the truck sustained serious injuries. The wrong-way driver, a 35-year-old male, was also injured.
It is unclear what charges the SUV driver will face.
