A man has been rushed to hospital after his vehicle crashed into the cement median on Highway 407.
It happened around 6 a.m. on Friday.
According to paramedics, the vehicle was heading on Airport Road when, for an unknown reason, the driver lost control and the vehicle slid down the embankment onto the 407. The vehicle crashed head-on into the median.
“(The) single vehicle lost control, went into the embankment, took out some signs. Drove for some distance before coming to rest,” OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt explained.
The driver was taken to a trauma centre with serious but not life-threatening injuries.
Schmidt said it appears the driver may have suffered a medical event.
