Durham Regional Police say three people were seriously injured after a two-vehicle crash in Oshawa on Friday.

Police said in a news release Saturday that emergency crews were called to the scene on Ritson Road North, north of Conlin Road, at 11:11 a.m.

Officers said a silver Chevrolet Cobalt was going north on Ritson Road when it hit a grey Toyota Corolla that was headed south.

“It is believed the Chevrolet was attempting to turn left into a private driveway,” the release said.

The drivers were taken to a local hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, while a passenger in the Toyota was taken to a Toronto-area trauma centre with critical injuries, police said.
