Serious injury or death was avoided by inches when one semi truck crossed a double-solid line and struck another on the Trans-Canada Highway east of Sicamous.

RCMP were called to the scene of the collision just west of the Last Spike rest stop in Craigellachie at 7:40 a.m. on March 2.

Police determined that a westbound transport truck had crossed the double-solid line and sideswiped an eastbound truck before coming to rest facing west in the eastbound ditch.

A car travelling behind the eastbound semi also sustained minor damage from flying debris.

The driver of the westbound tractor trailer was issued a ticket for crossing a double solid line.

A report from Sicamous RCMP Sgt. Murray McNeil said road conditions were good at the time of the collision.
