Drivers were stuck waiting up to seven hours on Highway 17 after a recent fatal accident; some were upset by the lack of communication from the OPP
A three-vehicle collision that left one person dead and two others seriously injured near Havilland Shores Drive in Goulais Township over the weekend had some motorists questioning why the highway was closed down for so long.
“This is utterly incomprehensible that the traffic is not allowed to move,” one motorist wrote. “There soon will be multiple emergencies with people not able to access food, water, and medication.” Because the accident occurred in Goulais near Harmony Beach, EMS and OPP were stationed a half hour away from the accident to begin with.
