An 80-year-old driver suffered life-threatening injuries following a three-vehicle crash on Highway 6 in Hamilton early Thursday afternoon.
Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) say the collision shut down part of the highway in Waterdown between Parkside Drive and Fifth Concession around 1 p.m., when a vehicle heading south crossed over into the northbound lane, striking two other vehicles.
“The most seriously injured person is the driver of that southbound vehicle that crossed into northbound lanes,” Sgt. Kerry Schmidt explained.
