RCMP say a motorist is facing impaired driving charges following a three-vehicle crash on Highway 16 east of Maymont, Sask., last month.
Police received a report about a red car driving the wrong way through a construction zone at a high speed as well as weaving in and out of traffic and almost hitting highway workers at roughly 2 p.m. on July 26.
Preliminary results indicated the red car struck a second red car and sideswiped a third black car before it entered the ditch and rolled, according to a press release. It also said the second red car rolled into the ditch and was severely damaged.
