The driver of the other vehicle also went to hospital, but suffered “relatively minor” injuries, Schmidt said.
“The investigation is still ongoing by the Mississauga OPP,” he said. “We are looking into all factors — alcohol and speed — as factors in this collision.”
Schmidt asked that anyone with information on the incident contact the Mississauga detachment of the OPP.
