This vehicle was quickly struck from behind by another tractor-trailer that had failed to slow. Both drivers were uninjured and quickly exited their vehicles. At around the same time a passenger car struck the second truck which was then struck by another semi-truck. This collision started a fire which killed the occupants of the car and quickly consumed three vehicles. The collision spread to the northbound lanes around this time when a passenger car slowed near the site of the collision in the southbound lanes and was subsequently struck by another car from behind. These vehicles were then struck by a pickup truck, which started a chain reaction that quickly spread to other vehicles. Over the next several minutes, a series of chain-reaction crashes occurred which ultimately consumed 99 vehicles and resulted in 12 deaths and 42 injuries. Some of the crashes set off multiple explosions and fires. The crash site extended

Some also questioned if Bowater's nearby settling ponds were a factor in the formation of the fog that preceded these collisions. Bowater denied responsibility for any of the fog that led to these collisions, but reached an out-of-court settlement with family members of two of the victims of the 1979 crash. As a result of the 1979 pileup, the

fog-related multi-vehicle collisions occurred along this stretch in the 1970s. The largest of these collisions took place on
November 5, 1978, on the Hiwassee River bridges. This collision involved 62 vehicles, and resulted in 46 injuries. The final multi-vehicle collision along this stretch before the 1990 collision occurred on April 15, 1979. This collision involved 18 vehicles, and resulted in 3 deaths and 14 injuries. Both of these collisions were investigated by the

Critics alleged that the state cancelled the study due to political pressure from Bowater. Bowater also commissioned a study in 1979 in an effort to counter the UT study, which instead concluded that Bowater's emissions did contribute to the fog, but not to what extent.

The stretch of I-75 between mileposts 31 and 39 was designated as a "fog advisory zone" or "fog advisory area", which contains large warning signs on both sides of the road in both directions that warn motorists when they are entering and leaving the area. Most of the roadway was re-striped in this zone with extra painted markings and
