A 25-year-old Shearstown woman, who had already been suspended from driving, is scheduled to appear in court on a series of charges following a back-to-back collision this week that sent two people to hospital.
The Bay Roberts RCMP and paramedics were called to the scene of the three-vehicle collision at LT Stick Drive around 11:30 p.m. on Monday, March 28th.
Police say the driver of a gray Chevy Equinox failed to stop and crashed into the back of a Chevy Trax that had slowed down to stop behind a third vehicle that stopped on the road trying to make a left turn.
The collision caused a chain reaction collision that affected all three vehicles.
The drivers of the Trax and the gray Chevy Equinox were taken to hospital with injuries. The RCMP says that the driver of the gray Chevy Equinox was driving while he was in suspension and the vehicle was not insured. According to the police, this is the third time that the woman has been found driving an uninsured vehicle and committing other traffic violations in the last 18 months. He was charged with driving without due care and attention, driving while in suspension and operating a vehicle without insurance.
The investigation continues.
