Duck avoidance crash on Highway 97 injures none
At 11 03 a.m. on Friday a recreation vehicle swerved to miss ducks on Highway 97. A following truck and fifth wheel rear ended the RV, then went into a ditch. Rainy conditions near Chetwynd left the ditch partially flooded. The drivers, both couples from Texas en route to Alaska, were freed with minor injuries and no serious harm. The second driver was charged with following too closely under the Motor Vehicle Act.
