Vegreville RCMP Respond to Accident on Highway 16 Michelle Pinon News Advertiser Vegreville RCMP responded to an accident on Highway 16 in the early morning hours of May 21. Cst. Dane McCarty said a call to the detachment came at 4:34 am. The driver of a vehicle hauling bales had the back corner of his unit clipped by the driver of a semi-truck travelling westbound on Highway 16. He explained that, “A private hauler was hauling hay bales that ended up with a flat tire so it was parked on the side of the road. As far as we know all emergency lights were on. And then the second semi, not really sure exactly how, but ended up catching the back corner of it and caused some damage, and obviously, both vehicles, one in the ditch and one

unable to move. The trailer with the hay bales on it was damaged on the corner. Unknown if there’s further damages past that caused by the impact. The other semi, the truck and the first trailer were pretty extensively damaged and undriveable.” No injuries were reported and no charges have been laid to date in relation to the accident. Cst. McCarty said there hasn’t been a reason for the crash determined yet. The accident is still under investigation by RCMP.
