It was salt in the wound for a truck driver in Revelstoke. First he crashed. Then he got a ticket.

RCMP say a logging truck with an empty trailer went off Townley Road just after 11 a.m. Friday.

It rolled down an embankment to Powerhouse Road, partially blocking the roadway.

The 33-year-old driver was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Police say road conditions were favourable and intoxication is not a factor.

The driver was charged under the Motor Vehicle Act with failing to keep to the right.
