The 18-year-old Chilliwack man who was driving the white Toyota Tacoma received minor injuries.

Highway #1 is open again after a serious collision shut the eastbound lanes for almost eight hours, and now BC Highway Patrol is asking for more witnesses and dash camera video to determine exactly what happened.

On September 3, 2025, just before 3:30 p.m., a white Toyota Tacoma pickup and a black GMC Sierra pickup collided in the eastbound lanes of Highway #1 east of the Yale Road exit, Chilliwack. Due to the speed of the collision, both vehicles rolled into a deep ditch at the side of the highway.

The 18-year-old Chilliwack man who was driving the white Toyota Tacoma received minor injuries. The elderly Alberta man who was driving the GMC was taken to hospital by air ambulance. His injuries are serious and may be life-altering.

Anyone who witnessed the driving behaviour, or has dash camera video, of the white Toyota pickup or the black GMC Sierra pickup in the minutes leading up to the collision is asked to call BC Highway Patrol – Chilliwack at 604-702-4039 and quote file (1501) 2025-37881.
