Jonesboro woman died Friday evening after she was

involved in a two-car wreck on Ga. Highway 314 in

Fayetteville, police said.

It

was the second fatal traffic accident of the year

recorded in the city.

Police

said the victim, Nancy Gail Sims, 53, had pulled

onto the roadway in the path of a Ford Explorer

driven by Benjamin Brasel Simpson of

Fayetteville. The Explorer crashed into the

driver's side of Sims' 1999 Mazda 626, according

to the accident report.

Simpson

was not injured in the crash, and neither were

the passengers in both cars, a police spokesman

said. All the occupants of both vehicles were

wearing their safety restraints, the report

stated.

No

charges have been filed against Simpson, said

Fayetteville Police spokesman Lt. Tom Kirkbride.

As

state law requires for all fatal traffic

accidents, drug and alcohol tests were

administered to Simpson. Lt. Kirkbride said there

was no evidence of drug or alcohol use at the

scene.

Kirkbride

said fatal auto accidents in Fayetteville are

uncommon, making them all the more sad.

"We

urge people to drive with caution and a ne ighborly attitude and look out

for one another," Kirkbride said.
