The Sagadahoc County Sheriff’s Office is blaming a crash on Route 1 in Woolwich on road rage.
Sheriff’s deputies, Wiscasset police and first responders were called to the crash near the Wiscasset town line just after 8 a.m. Wednesday.
The crash involved two northbound cars, a 2012 Nissan driven by 25-year-old Brittany O’Kelly, of Bath, and a 2004 Mazda driven by a 17-year-old girl from Damariscotta, according to a social media post by the sheriff’s office.
Neither driver was injured.
“The investigation of the crash determined that this was a road-rage type of incident,” the sheriff’s office said.
As a result, O’Kelly was cited for driving to endanger and the 17-year-old driver was cited for following too closely.
Traffic was held up for about half an hour.
