Provincial police have identified the victim of a fatal collision between a passenger vehicle and a tractor-trailer last week in North Dundas.

Police said a westbound passenger vehicle entered into the eastbound lane and struck an oncoming tractor-trailer head-on, closing the roadway for upwards of 12 hours.

The driver of the car was pronounced dead at the scene, while the transport driver was uninjured.

OPP have identified the victim as 30-year-old Tyler Prevost of Chesterville, Ont.

Police are still investigating but an OPP spokesperson told Global News that charges are not being considered against the transport driver.
