Drivers Fined After Ignoring Barricades

Two people suffered non-life-threatening injuries following a crash in Blenheim.

Two vehicles collided at the intersection of Ridge Line and Harwich Road just before 9:30 Wednesday morning, sending both drivers to hospital.

The intersection was closed for several hours, but authorities say a number of other motorists ignored the barricades and tried to drive through anyway – a move that costs drivers a $110 fine and three demerit points.
