Impaired driving was involved in an accident that seriously injured its driver in Frontenac, Estrie.
The swerve occurred on Highway 161 around 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning. No other vehicle was involved.
“The driver reportedly lost control of his vehicle before rolling over one or more times and being ejected from the vehicle. The young man in his twenties was transported to a hospital center, where he is currently in critical condition, ”said Sergeant Catherine Bernard, spokesperson for the Sûreté du Québec (SQ).
A police officer specializing in collision investigation went to the scene to analyze the scene.
“As the victim was ejected, the fact that the seat belt was worn incorrectly or not worn is one of the hypotheses under study,” said the spokesperson for the SQ.
If the man survives his injuries, another challenge will await him as he will no doubt have to face justice.
“As he could have been impaired by alcohol and / or drugs during the incident, steps will be taken by the police to obtain blood samples”.
The SQ investigation is ongoing.
