A teenager is in hospital with life-threatening injuries following a collision Thursday night in Juniper Ridge between a pickup truck and an e-bike.
According to police, emergency crews were called to the 2700-block of Qu’appelle Boulevard just before 7:30 p.m.
“Initial findings suggest a youth riding an e-bike along Qu’appelle Boulevard collided with an oncoming westbound vehicle,” RCMP Cpl. James Grandy said in a news release.
“Unless you are a specialized police officer who knows all about this, it’s very difficult for the average patrol member to figure out whether or not somebody’s doing something wrong…”
“The only thing you can do as a driver when you’re faced with somebody who’s driving erratically is to be a defensive driver and use the things the MVA requires you to do.”
