A 31-year-old Regina man is charged with impaired operation of a vehicle causing bodily harm following a head-on collision on Ring Road early Saturday, according to police.
The collision occurred in the westbound lanes of the highway at around 3 a.m. It involved a semi and a pickup truck, which was driving the wrong way.
The driver of the pickup truck, Kraig Skoye, was transported to hospital with serious injuries. He is the person now facing the impaired driving charge.
The driver of the semi-truck, a 38-year-old man from Calgary, was also taken to hospital for injuries.
