Shortly before 6 p.m. on Thursday, No. 13, Sunshine Coast RCMP, Gibsons fire department, and paramedics were called to Harvey Road and Marine Drive in Gibsons, after a car crashed through a fence and went down an embankment.
“The driver had been southbound on Harvey Road when he missed the stop sign at Marine Drive and drove through a nearby fence,” said Const. Harrison Mohr. “The car came to rest near the front door of the home below.
“The driver sustained only minor injuries. This is a good reminder that with the darker evenings and slippery roads, it is all the more important to slow down and drive with care. In this case everyone was very lucky that the car did not go into the house, it certainly could have been much worse.”
RCMP are continuing to investigate.
