Dramatic photos show a rolled over car on the rocks in front of Clover Point in Victoria.
The Victoria Firefighters Association says crews were dispatched to the motor vehicle incident around 3:10 p.m. Saturday.
“Upon arrival, crews found a single car that had driven off the embankment and come to rest on its side/roof,” according to the Firefighters Association in an email.
The driver suffered non-life-threatening injuries, the association tells CHEK News.
“The airbags had deployed, and fortunately, the sole occupant suffered only non-life-threatening injuries. BCEHS was already on the scene, and the driver, who was able to self-extricate, was already receiving treatment when Victoria Fire arrived.”
