‘Conditions are nasty out here:’ Nanaimo road conditions varying wildly amid continuing snow
NANAIMO — Road conditions continue to be dangerous across much of the region.
Multiple vehicles have ended up in ditches, sliding through intersections, and colliding with medians or other vehicles throughout much of Tuesday, Dec. 20 as snow has continued to fall.
Nanaimo Fire Rescue Capt. Brian Cripps said roads are messy and are believed to be a contributing factor behind a rollover incident on the Old Island Hwy., near Oliver Rd. around 3 p.m.
“Conditions are nasty out here, people need to slow down. This accident is the result of probably not having the proper tires and probably driving too fast.”
