Two people were sent to hospital Wednesday morning, Aug. 23, after a head-on crash in Pitt Meadows.

Pitt Meadows Fire and Rescue responded to the crash that happened at about 8:30 a.m. by the intersection of 203 Street and Golden Ears Way.

One person was taken to Royal Columbian with a possible broken pelvis, accompanied by a Pitt Meadows firefighter in the ambulance, said deputy fire chief Tracy Warren.

The driver of the other vehicle was taken to Ridge Meadows Hospital with less serious injuries, he added.

Ridge Meadows RCMP confirmed that frontline officers responded to a motor vehicle incident between two vehicles.

“Both drivers sustained non-life threatening injuries and both were transported to hospital,” noted Cpl. Julie Klaussner with the Ridge Meadows detachment, adding that both vehicles had front end damage and air bag deployment.

Warren is cautioning drivers to pay extra attention to the roads in the coming weeks as the school year is fast approaching.
