A 26-year-old Peachtree City woman who was critically injured in a head-on collision Thursday morning died Sunday after she was taken off life-support, police said.

Tiffany Kay Haugli, of 818 Bedford Park, the driver of a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse, was traveling north on Ga. Highway 74 near Gardner Park about 8:30 a.m. when she traveled off the road while attempting to negotiate a curve, according to Peachtree City police reports. Haugli overcorrected, forcing her vehicle to spin out of control.

Haugli’s car collided head-on with a 1984 Chevrolet C-10 pickup truck driven by Richard Howard Jr., 31, of 7563 Cove Road, Woodbury. The accident occurred in an area under construction, which has become a hotbed for motor vehicle crashes, police officials say. Thursday’s accident, which led to a fatality, was the second such incident of the week in Fayette County.

Haughi received severe head and chest injuries in the crash and had been in a coma in the Atlanta Medical Center’s Intensive Care Unit, her grandmother Lucretia Bolle said Friday.

Howard also was injured. He was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital; however, his injuries did not appear to be life-threatening, according to initial police reports.

Haugli, a former Menomonie, Wis., resident, was a Purdue University alumna who graduated with a 4.0 grade point average. She was an electrical engineer for Panasonic in Peachtree City. She also was an avid runner who competed in Women’s Open Division’s Peachtree Road Race 10K July 4. She completed the race in 56 minutes and 39 seconds. She also volunteered with the Habitat for Humanity in Indiana, Haugli’s grandmother confirmed.

Funeral arrangements will be handled by Parrott Funeral Home in Fairburn.
