An Auburn man died Tuesday as a result of injuries sustained from an Oct. 22 car crash on Harbins Road in Dacula south of Drowning Creek Road.

According to an accident report obtained from Gwinnett County police, Nicholas B. Moreno, 20, was driving a 1995 Honda Civic southbound on Harbins Road when it crossed into oncoming traffic and collided with a 2002 Toyota Sienna.

Alcohol and speed were not a factor, the report states. Both vehicles were reportedly traveling at a speed of 45 miles-per-hour.

Both drivers were taken to Gwinnett Medical Center for treatment due to their injuries. Hospital staff said the other driver has already been discharged.

sure Gwinnett county is disappointed sure they would have loved to get his money for the citation they issued.

I am praying for his family and the other involved in this ACCIDENT, I think it was an accident though some here claim there are no accidents.

What a horrible thing for you to say! I have first hand knowledge of this awful awful accident because my family was involved. The Gwinnett county police, firefighters and EMTs were amazing. They continue to keep in touch and have been nothing but kind.
This was an accident -- a mistake that any of us could make -- and sadly cost one young man his life. Cost a mother and father their child. Cost a young woman her fiancé.
Your comment is nothing other than offensive.

comment was based on a man recently got arrested and charged with manslaughter for getting in an accident where someone did die, this man has I think three kids and a wife, and the Barrow County made sure to cite him and get a awarrant for his arrest.

I feel for this man in this case who died in this accident my point was had he not died, the Police and others would have been happy soon as he got out of hospital to have him arrested and sent off to prison for an accident. yes the other man had an accident, but Mr are you kidding was defending that the guy got arrested and charged with crime that could cost that father three years in the Georgia penal system not just county jail, I am sorry and praying for both and all familes involved when ACCIDENS happen and there is loss of life.

God bless each and evryone!!!

Dont try and put words in my mouth. Where does is say ANYWHERE that I was defending anyone but the one one who lost his life, his family, loved ones and friends. Thats who I was defending. Try not to turn attention from yourself onto me.

ARE YOU REALLY KIDDING ME? "Money", "Citation".
You are a "special" person. A man lost his life , a family a son, brother a friend. You actually have the audiacity of start your post with THAT sentence? Your parents must be proud.

Praying for the family, loved ones and friends for their tragic loss.

This is the 20yr old man that dieds aunt. This was the most tragic horror our family has had to endure. We would have rather paid a citation of hundreds than to have lost our precious Nico. This was due to Texting and driving so instead of pointing fingers and exchanging words, let's all take the pledge of no texting and driving. Next month will be a year since we lost him and each day does not get easier but gets harder. The one thing that helps us cope is that we are such advocates of distractive driving.

Thank you for your prayers
