Yesterday (Wednesday April 17th) between 9:45am and 9:50am, my husband was hit by a gravel truck and trailer on Highway 11 going Northbound, just past Line 11.
He was travelling in the left hand lane when the gravel truck and trailer decided to move over from the right lane into the left, my husband tried hitting the brakes and honking but it was too late.
The gravel truck driver did hear his hoking and attempted to move back into the right lane however his trailer swing out and hit the front passenger side which sent my husband into the left lane guard rail.
After he hit the guardrail he tried to regain control to avoid going into oncoming traffic from the southbound lanes, and corrected himself however ended up bouncing back into the gravel truck and trailer again before hitting the guardrail and coming to a stop in the left hand lane just past line 11.
He was stuck in the left hand lane unable to exit the vehicle because the driver door was pinned against the guardrail.
The gravel truck driver continued driving, never stopped.
I’m asking anyone that may have seen the accident, have dashcam footage, a license plate for the gravel truck, etc to please reach out to me!
