COLD LAKE - Cold Lake RCMP are reminding residents to use caution when driving on winter roads.
A snowfall warning was in place for much of the Lakeland on March 13, and weather conditions resulted in snow covered roads, along with low visibility in many areas.
RCMP say they responded to a serious motor vehicle collision on Thursday involving a commercial vehicle at Highway 55 and Highway 897.
"Through the course of the investigation, it was learned that an SUV was travelling along Highway 55, while a pickup truck attempted to turn onto Highway 897," reads information released by RCMP. "The SUV attempted to avoid a collision, but was unsuccessful, striking the pickup truck, which then spun the SUV into an oncoming semi truck with a flatbed."
The drivers of the pickup truck and semi truck were examined by EMS, and no injuries were reported. The driver of the SUV was transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
"Cold Lake RCMP would like to remind motorists to give plenty of room between yourself and other vehicles, slow down, and drive for the weather conditions," say RCMP
The highways were both cleared and traffic was moving normally when the RCMP released information shortly after 7 p.m.
