Stevens was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital for medical care; he later spoke to his cohost on the radio and he told her and their listeners that he “was getting in the left lane and all of a sudden I just looked up and there were headlights, and it was a wrong-way driver.” He told listeners that his car rolled because he swerved hard to avoid the wrong-way driver, as he had almost no time to react.
Stevens suffered a broken leg and a broken arm but is in stable condition. However, the wrong-way driver didn’t make it. She has been identified as 22-year-old Carlyn Emily Royball, of Alpharetta. She worked at Taco Mac in Alpharetta and was a graduate of Milton High School.
Sandy Springs police are investigating the crash caused by the wrong-way driver. They are looking into where Royball entered the highway going the wrong direction and if alcohol was a factor in the crash.
Our Atlanta car accident lawyers at Shane Smith Law would like to offer our best wishes for a full and fast recovery to Kelly Stevens and our deepest sympathies to Royball’s family and friends.
