No injuries were reported in a single-vehicle accident that occurred Saturday morning on Highway 11 just west of Oakwood Drive in Alberton Township.
Fort Frances OPP said the driver was westbound around 9:30 a.m. when she lost control of her vehicle, spun around once, entered the ditch, and completely rolled over—landing back on her wheels.
The driver, who had been wearing a seatbelt, was not injured, police reported.
Police are reminding motorists to adjust their speeds and driving habits to weather and road conditions.
With mild temperatures in the forecast, moisture will form on the roadways and turn to ice as temperatures cool.
In other news, members of the OPP’s traffic unit patrolled the OFSC snowmobile trails in Fort Frances and west to Barwick. Eight snowmobilers were stopped and checked, resulting in five warnings being issued.
In total, almost 300 km of trails were patrolled, including the towns of Fort Frances, Emo, and Barwick.
As well, Fort Frances OPP officers investigated four liquor licence offences over the past week.
In all cases, individuals were taken into custody for being intoxicated in a public place and to prevent a breach of the peace, police said.
