Roll Over
March 20, 2008
THE LONG WEEKEND IS OFF TO A DANGEROUS START ON THE ROADS. BUT FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS HURT IN THIS CRASH FROM THIS AFTERNOON. A MAN LOST CONTROL OF HIS SUV ON THE WESTBOUND LANES OF THE 401, JUST EAST OF HIGHWAY 15. THE VEHICLE SLID OVER A SNOWBANK -- AND ENDED UP IN A FIELD ABOUT 30 METRES FROM THE HIGHWAY. KINGSTON FIRE AND RESCUE ARRIVED ON THE SCENE -- AND HAD TO FREE THE TRAPPED DRIVER. THEY SAY THE DRIVER'S USE OF A SEATBELT LIKELY SAVED HIM FROM SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. SLIPPERY ROAD CONDITIONS MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE CRAS
