Mounties in Surrey, B-C, say they are looking for witnesses and dashcam footage after a car crashed and rolled over this weekend.
They say the vehicle was travelling north on 192nd Street on Saturday night when it went off road into a ditch, causing the vehicle to roll.
Police say officers arrived to the scene around 11 P-M and the driver was taken to hospital for medical assessment.
They say they have not yet determined if speed or alcohol were a factor in the crash.
