BCHP seek information relating to serious collision west of Salmon Arm

B.C. Highway Patrol (BCHP) is asking for information from the public that will assist in the investigation of a serious collision on Highway 1 near White Lake at around 7:45 a.m. today (Oct. 28).

BCHP’s preliminary investigation determined that an eastbound cement truck tried to avoid a collision with a merging vehicle, lost control, and crashed into the centre concrete divider before rolling over.

A westbound pickup truck then collided with one of the concrete barriers that had been dislodged and pushed into the westbound lanes.

The drivers of both vehicles were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
