Saanich police said congestion caused two separate accidents involving five cars on the Patricia Bay Highway today.

The accidents were cleared by 6:20 p.m.

The first occurred around 5 p.m. in the northbound lane of the highway near Haliburton Road. When traffic stopped suddenly, the female driver of a Volkswagen Jetta swerved into the concrete median. Her car had to be towed.

Why is the SPD beating around the bush when it comes to naming the cause of the collision here? Congestion didn't cause the collision, following too closely did. The driver was unable to stop in time and had to swerve.

5 cars involved in two different collisions today on a road with regular speed enforcement.
