Triplet of MVIs near 70 Mile

Early morning ice leads to separate crashes, some injuries

Three separate motor vehicle incidents (MVIs) occurred just south of 70 Mile House around the same time in the morning on Dec. 18.

Clinton RCMP Const. Jeff McMichael says icy road conditions led to a triad of single-vehicle MVIs at about 8 a.m. last Thursday.

Two people experienced minor injuries as a result and were transported to 100 Mile District General Hospital where they were treated and released, he explains.

"There was no speed or alcohol – it was more just icy conditions as the factors in all three.

"At that time, the roads changed when the temperature kind of flashes it over with ice."
