On March 1, 2012, at approximately 5:50pm, Brandon RCMP as well as local emergency services were dispatched to the scene of a two-vehicle collision at the intersection of Magazine Road and Waggle Springs Road in the RM of Cornwallis.

Initial investigation indicates that a 2001 International semi-trailer was eastbound on Magazine Road when it collided with a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta that was southbound on Waggle Springs Road. Southbound Waggle Springs Road at this intersection is reported to be controlled by a yield sign.

The driver of the Jetta, a 21-year-old man from the RM of Cornwallis, was transported to hospital with serious, undetermined injuries. The driver of the semi, a 61-year-old man from the RM of Rossendale was not injured.

There were no other persons or vehicles involved. An RCMP Traffic Collision Analyst attended to assist with the ongoing investigation.
