A woman driver received minor injuries after her vehicle was forced off the roadway and slammed into a ditch along Highway 11/17.

OPP officers and other emergency services responded to the incident just after 2 p.m. Saturday.

Police say the vehicle went into a ditch a few kilometres down the road from the Mackenzie Rest Inn. 

The driver was taken to the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre with minor injuries.

The driver spoke to tbnewswatch.com Monday and said the white transport truck was heading westbound toward Thunder Bay as she drove east toward Pass Lake. She said the truck began travelling in the eastbound lane she was in, which forced her off the roadway.

The investigation is ongoing.
