Heather Quiggle, 42, of Johns Creek, was arrested Dec. 10 at the Fulton County Jail on numerous charges, including hit and run causing serious injury.
Jail records show she was released Wednesday morning on $16,320 bond. She is due back in court next month. As of Wednesday evening, it was still unclear whether she had retained a lawyer.
It happened around 8pm on November 3. Investigators say Quiggle was driving her 2018 Chevrolet Silverado the wrong way on the northbound Interstate 85 exit at North Central Avenue in Hapeville and collided with a 2000 GMC Sierra. The collision left the other driver with serious leg injuries taken to the hospital, police said.
Investigators credited a witness at the scene with helping identify Quiggle. They also checked her tag and confirmed she was the registered owner. Police tried to reach her but were unable to because she left her phone behind when she fled, investigators said.
