Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office deputies, firefighters and crash investigations unit personnel responded to a severe bicycle accident on Canton Highway on Saturday. A 22-year-old Cumming woman was stuck by a car on July 30 just after 4:20 p.m. while biking on the highway near Chamblee Gap Road between Bethelview and Post roads, sustaining what were described as severe injuries. The bicyclist was traveling west near the shoulder of the road when a 1993 Honda Civic reportedly crossed over the fog line and hit her front tire head-on, according to Deputy Epifanio Rodriguez, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office.
