Two people escaped uninjured after a driver drove into Cameron Lake on Thursday night.
“Two ladies who were in the car lost control, I guess due to slippery road conditions, and ended up in the lake,” said Cpl. Michael Elston with the Central Van Island Traffic Service. “They both got out with no injuries and they’re co-operating with the investigation at Oceanside [RCMP].
Elston said the car, which was fully submerged, was towed from the lake Friday morning.
“It looks like it’s just an overcorrection due to slippery roads,” Elston said.
He said that even though there was little rain, any rain after two months of dry roads that have fluid build up on them can lead to slick conditions.
