PRINCE GEORGE — Police are reminding drivers to make safe choices following two serious incidents that occurred within hours of each other over the weekend.

Prince George RCMP say the first incident occurred just after midnight on Sunday when a driver lost control of his vehicle heading down Peden Hill.

Police say the vehicle flipped on its roof, pinning the 21-year-old driver from Alberta, who escaped uninjured.

About two-and-a-half hours later, a 38-year-old Prince George man rolled down an embankment in his vehicle on the 1000 block of Stirling Drive and suffered severe injuries.

Police believe speed was a factor in both crashes.
