Police say firefighters extricated a man, a woman, and two children, ages 5 and 8, all from Woodbridge from the damaged vehicle.
"The woman and five-year-old child were airlifted by Ornge to a Toronto trauma centre where they are being treated for non-life-threatening injuries," South Simcoe police stated in a release on Monday. "The man and eight-year-old child were transported to a local hospital where they were treated and released."
Police say the other driver, a 60-year-old Bradford woman, was also taken to a local hospital where she was treated and has since been released.
The roads were closed for nearly nine hours for the investigation and for crews to replace the utility pole.
