(TOWNSHIP OF PERTH EAST, ON) On Wednesday July 07, 2011 around 5:30 p.m. Perth County OPP officers were dispatched to a rollover crash on Perth Road 119 north of Gads Hill.
Police investigation indicated that a 2007 Mazda car was driving south bound on Perth Road 119 when the car veered towards the right shoulder. The passenger side wheels dropped off the newly paved portion of the road which is raised above the gravel shoulder. The driver immediately attempted to steer the vehicle back onto the roadway causing him to lose control. This resulted in the car crossing both lanes and rolling into the east ditch.
The 31 year old driver from Stratford was transported by Perth County Ambulance to Stratford General Hospital as a precautionary measure.
Police are reminding motorists to pay special attention and concentrate on their driving as they are travelling through construction zones.
