The driver of the oncoming car, a man in his 50s, survived with minor injuries but describes in interrogation how the accident was like a "near death experience" and that he has subsequently become afraid to drive a car.
In the car with the young people, the situation was all the more serious, but everyone survived.
Prosecutors have now chosen to prosecute the young driver in his late teens for negligence in traffic and causing bodily harm.
According to the indictment, the driver started a overtaking without making sure it was safe and one of his fellow passengers suffered a clavicle fracture and the driver of the oncoming car suffered a sternum fracture.
Several injured
More young people were injured but they have refused to participate in the prosecution.
The driver denies the crime.
It is unclear when the trial in Hudiksvall District Court will take place.
