Tow truck driver taken to hospital after transport collides with crash scene

From the Bracebridge OPP

Highway 11 North, just north of North Kahshe Lake Road in Gravenhurst, was closed for several hours last night following a collision.

On January 21, 2025, at 7:45 p.m., Bracebridge OPP officers were dispatched to a two-vehicle collision that occurred on Highway 11 North near Luigi Road in Gravenhurst. Shortly after their arrival and the arrival of a tow truck, a third vehicle became involved when a transport truck struck one of the police vehicles.

The officers were not in the police vehicle at the time and were not injured, however the tow truck operator was transported to hospital with unconfirmed injuries. The occupants of the vehicles involved in the original collision were not injured.  

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call Bracebridge OPP at 1-888-310-1122.

    Perhaps excessive speed for the conditions by a poorly trained driver with no experience in Winter driving . The Government needs to improve training and Crack down on the poor quality instruction provided by the many so called training centre’s that exist without credentials !
