The two-vehicle crash happened on Thursday around 6 p.m. in the area of 5th Sideroad and the 4th Line in Bradford West Gwillimbury.

The driver of the pickup truck, a 43-year-old man from Bracebridge, suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

He was charged with careless driving.

They are appealing to witnesses or anyone with dash cam footage to come forward.
