The operator of a sport utility vehicle fell asleep, struck the median, and then collided with a pickup truck stopped at the intersection.
Lloydminster Fire Rescue and paramedics also attended the scene.
The driver was issued a ticket for driving without reasonable consideration for others, which carries a $580 fine and four demerit points for a first offence under Saskatchewan’s Safe Driver Recognition program.
No injuries were reported.
