TWO-VEHICLE MVC
On July 21, East Hants RCMP received a report of a two-vehicle accident involving a motorcycle and a pick-up truck.
The driver of the motorcycle was completing a left turn from Highway 236 onto Highway 215 and was struck broadside by the pickup truck that entered Highway 236 from the 215 after being stopped at the stop-sign.
The driver of the truck reported the bike must have been in their blind spot and was not observed before proceeding.
