The collision happened along Highway 52 near Road 23E in the Rural Municipality of Hanover. That intersection is near the turnoff to the HyLife feedmill.
According to RCMP, an SUV was travelling west on Highway 52 when it entered the eastbound lane and collided nearly head-on with an eastbound semi-trailer. Police say the driver's side corner of the SUV struck the driver's side corner of the semi.
