Title: Serious injury in crash Friday

---------------------------------------------------


By Bill Rea
A 22-year-old woman from Amaranth received serious, but non-life threatening injuries Friday after an accident on Highway 10, south of Charleston Sideroad.
Caledon OPP Constable Brenda Evans reported the women was travelling north in a Toyota when she slowed down for stopped traffic. She was being followed by a tractor trailer which didn't stop, but swerved to try and avoid a collision. The truck hit the rear quarter panel of the car, sending it spinning clockwise.
Conditions were foggy at the time.
Evans said the woman was air lifted to a trauma centre.
The incident is still under investigation.
The Town of Caledon reported the road was closed for about 10 hours.
The performance of Town staff during the incident came in for praise at Tuesday's meeting of Caledon council.
Councillor Doug Beffort brought the matter up, pointing to the job personnel from the fire and public works departments did dealing with “major traffic volumes coming up Highway 10.”
“Everybody go through it okay,” he said.
