RCMP respond to over 600 collisions in 3 days on Alberta roads

RCMP "K" Division

RCMP across Alberta have responded to more than 600 collisions between Thursday November 27 and Saturday November 29. Approximately 50 of these collisions involved injury.

Poor winter weather resulted in treacherous driving conditions across the Province. Wind, snow and ice were contributing factors in a number of collisions; however, it remains the responsibility of each individual driver to ensure they are operating their vehicles in a safe manner given the conditions.

Although the weather has improved in many part of the Province, the RCMP would like to remind motorists to drive safely and with caution. If you are unfortunate enough to be involved in a collision is it recommended you remain in you vehicle (if safe to do so) until the environment is safe enough to exit.
