If you were trying to take Highway 80 in Effingham County home tonight--you might have been stuck in traffic.
The Effingham Sheriff's Office was working not one, but two car accidents within a half mile of each other.
The first crash occurred around 6 P.M. at the intersection of Highway 80 and Route 17 when a vehicle was trying to make a left turn---but instead struck a truck.
That accident had traffic backed up all the way to the Chatham County line resulting in another crash just 15 minutes later.
In all, five cars were involved in the accidents.
Four of the drivers suffered injuries but we are told they are not life threatening.
