Bin Truck Collides Into Vehicles: Ottawa

Four people were injured after a municipal bin truck collided head on into two vehicles on Old Main Road in Ottawa a short while.

Members of Reaction Unit South Africa were dispatched to the scene after receiving several calls from passing motorists reporting the incident. Upon arrival it was established that a Toyota Fortuner and a BMW were stationary at the robots when the bin truck collided head on into both vehicles. The truck then veered across the road, climbed the metal crash barrier and came to a stop at the base of a steep embankment.

The injured were treated on scene before being transported to hospital.
