The collision occurred at the intersection of Woodstock and Hope Streets in Tavistock. The intersection is controlled by traffic lights.
Investigation revealed that a transport was attempting to turn south on to Woodstock Street from Hope Street and misjudged the corner, striking a building. No injuries were reported.
Gurshan SINGH, 21-years-old of Calgary was charged with Careless Driving and was issued a Provincial Offence Notice.
Police are minding tractor-trailer drivers to remember that they may need to proceed well into the intersection before beginning the turn.
