Saskatoon police say a driver who pulled over to use a hand-held device did not leave enough room for a vehicle to pass, resulting in a crash.
The two-vehicle collision happened on the southbound off-ramp from Attridge Drive to Circle Drive East on Sunday at around 10:55 a.m. CT.
Police said the driver pulled over onto the shoulder in order to use a hand-held device when the vehicle following behind struck the stopped vehicle.

The investigation is ongoing.
