A woman was seriously injured in an accident in Saint-Rémi
A 28-year-old female driver was seriously injured in a three-vehicle collision Friday afternoon in Saint-Rémi, Montérégie, reports the Sûreté du Québec (SQ).
Around 2 p.m., authorities were called to Saint-Rémi Boulevard (Route 221) regarding the collision.
According to preliminary information, the 28-year-old woman “was unable to stop in time and collided with another vehicle in front of her, which was about to make a turn,” says SQ spokesperson Camille Savoie.
Her vehicle then deviated from its trajectory and collided head-on with a heavy truck.
The driver was taken to hospital. Authorities fear for her life.
A collision investigation officer was dispatched to the scene to determine the circumstances surrounding the event. Saint-Rémi boulevard was closed in both directions.
