The driver of the latter, who was traveling north, hit an oncoming motorist. Two other vehicles collided with the first two cars involved.
Five people were injured in this spectacular accident, but fortunately no one had to fear their lives.
“An octogenarian suffered more serious injuries, but his life is not in danger,” said Ève Brochu-Joubert, spokesman for the Sûreté du Québec (SQ).

An SQ reconstructionist went to the scene to clarify the circumstances of the multiple collisions. The road was closed until the middle of the night before it was reopened to traffic.
