A morning crash on the Okanagan Connector is serving as a stark reminder of winter road conditions.

RCMP say the person behind the wheel of a white SUV was driving below the posted speed limit, but still lost control. The driver skidded and ended up in a snowbank in the middle of the highway. The driver and passenger inside were both uninjured.
