Crash victims cling to life
Five people die in crashes in a devastating weekend on Southwestern
Ontario roads.
By Kelly PEDRO,
Sun
Media,
Tues.,
June 5, 2007
Two people were clinging to life in a London hospital yesterday
after a deadly weekend on Southwestern Ontario roads claimed
five lives.
The weekend deaths were among 11 lives lost on area roads in
the past 17 days.
"It's been a very devastating weekend for the officers investigating
the crashes, as well as the families left behind to deal with
the tragedies," said Western Region Ontario Provincial Police
Sgt. Dave Rektor.
"The worst part is, it's all preventable."
In the most recent death, a 44-year-old London man was killed
when the motorcycle he was driving collided with a pickup truck
near Saint Marys.
The pickup was travelling south on the 15th Line when it collided
in the intersection with the motorcycle travelling west on Zorra
Road 92 about 6 p.m. Sunday, said Oxford Ontario Provincial Police.
The intersection is controlled by stop signs on the 15th Line,
police said. Roads were dry and clear at the time.
Other weekend deaths:
- Joel SCHILLER, 55, of Tecumseh died after the all-terrain vehicle
dune buggy he was driving on Northville Road south of Port Franks,
rolled into a ditch Sunday afternoon.
SCHILLER suffered fatal
head injuries. Ontario Provincial Police are investigating.
- April JILLSON, 22, of Corunna and Jennifer
SEABROOK, 33, of
London, were killed after the car they were in collided with
another vehicle at Littlewood Drive and Carriage Road Friday
afternoon.
JILLSON and
SEABROOK were travelling west on Littlewood,
south of London at the time. The intersection is controlled by
stop signs on Littlewood, Ontario Provincial Police said.
- Three hours later, Judy Mae
ABRAM, 51, of Muncey died after
the car she was driving failed to stop for a stop sign on Jubilee
Drive and Muncey Road and collided with an embankment. Two passengers,
Marie GROSBECK, 47, and Morgan
WILLIAMS, 23, also of Muncey,
were in critical condition in a London hospital yesterday.
Though the Ontario Provincial Police have increased visibility
and public education efforts, the safe-driving message seems
to be falling on deaf ears, Rektor said.
"Unless the public buys into this message that they need to change
their driving, then they could be next," he said.
"If people felt that way, they might reconsider the way they're
driving every day."
