RCMP in Nanaimo have launched an impaired driving investigation following a hit-and-run crash in that city.
The crash seriously injured an 18-year-old woman and totalled the car she was driving.
The woman was hit from behind by a pickup truck that tried to cut behind her vehicle as she drove on the Nanaimo Parkway, sending her small car careening out of control, but causing little damage to the pickup.
Witness reports led police to the suspected driver and his vehicle.
The man was arrested for impaired driving after failing two breath tests, his truck was impounded for 30 days, and he was issued several violation tickets, including failing to remain at the scene of an accident.
