Driver of overpass crash in Abbotsford could face charges

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 02 May, 2023 09:39 AM
  • Driver of overpass crash in Abbotsford could face charges

B-C Highway Patrol says the driver of a commercial vehicle that hit an overpass on Highway 1 could face charges under the Motor Vehicle Act.

The collision, which involved equipment loaded on a truck striking the Peardonville Road overpass in Abbotsford yesterday, was captured on video.

Highway Patrol says though there were no injuries, a car was struck by some debris from the overpass.

It says early indications suggest the vehicle that struck the overpass was over-height, so charges are being considered.
