City of Kelowna sanding truck rear ended on Gordon

A crash snarled morning traffic on one of Kelowna’s busy arterial roads.

It happened in the southbound lanes of Gordon Drive at the intersection with Cook Road.

“It just appears that the driver wasn’t paying attention, didn’t notice the truck was slowing down in front of him and drove into the back of it,” Cst. Lise Marion said.
