A 19-year-old woman from Mississauga has been charged with careless driving following an accident this morning that dumped 2,184 cases of beer onto Highway 401, forcing its closure during the morning rush.
Police allege she swerved out of her lane and into the path of the Molson beer truck at 6:30 a.m., causing the rollover in the eastbound lanes. The woman's flipped over as a result.
Woolley credited the woman's seatbelt and the car's airbags with saving her life.
Molson spokesperson Nathalie Masse said the driver was hauling the load for delivery in Oshawa. He has a "stellar record" of more than 25 years, Masse said. The truck driver wasn't injured in the crash.
The entire load of beer was spilled, creating what one police officer described as a "sea of beer."
Does anyone else have a tear in their eye?
